This is another video I filmed the same night of another guy at the pool. He does a coupla rolls filmed from the bow. Then does one last one filmed from the offside. From what I can tell the set up is basically the same on or offside where you lean forward and lay the paddle powerside up on top of the front bags and then when you're under you swing back and up and then push down as you swing the paddle forward as you would on a low brace. The fellow in the yellow boat seems like he just pushesd down rather than push and swing forward. To me the pushing down and forward makes more sense as you would be coming out with your paddle in the forward position set up for a foward power stroke. Also notice how this guy has the paddle further from the boat and how he basically starts his push with the paddle higher and somtimes even out of the water giving him much greater leverage and power and making the roll and least from the observer point seem much more effortless. We do have to give credit to my bud Matt in the other video as this was his very first time rolling a boat. I thought he did great!! Hey, Pepe; can you make another video like that, but from the offside (the side the paddler is falling over onto)? I'd like to see more of how he sets up for the roll as he is going over. --riverman |
