solopaddler Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 That was part of the training with ORCA (Ontario Recreational Canoe Association) back in the day when I was an instructor. I'm talking an open canoe here, not a yak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discophish Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Before I even bought my kayaks, I took rolling clinics at a wave pool, the it progressed to the lessons in white water on the big Ottawa River. It saves lives. Sure looks like a lot of work (and unsafe) having to bail from your biggest floatation device other than your pfd ... just to get back in. It's actually really easy to roll a flat water kayak upright, even with some gear on it. It's not easy when you are tossed around like in a washing machine.
