Hello Timmy, you wrote:

Excellent post Melissa. Of course, "bombproof" is a crazy "cult"
idea. You have joined the intelligent and now reasonable Slim Jim
Stuart: [snip]

I may have different views than some concerning the concept of
"bombproof" rolling and the types of skills practicing we do, but
please don't take my words and use them for your own delusional
purposes. I, personally, have no use for your Sponsons (nor, as a
matter of fact, do I see Jim Stuart endorsing them).

Frankly, your constant touting of your Sponsons as the be all/end all
of kayak safety can do more damage than those who feel they can
develop a "bombproof" roll. At least they're working on versatile
skills that can be constantly improved upon, and not relying on a
mechanical device that is severly limited in its utility/usefulness.
When it comes to paddling, I'd much rather depend upon my own
judgment and skills than on any single bit of equipment.

You have freedom of speech, so go ahead and say whatever you like
about this or that, but please, as a favor to me, I'd ask you not to
use me or my words to make your points, as I do not endorse your
point of view.
