theres no real proper way to roll, like if it gets you right way up and its not hurting who is to say your doing anything wrong.
-

Easy? Come on! You can fool somebody who never tried a normal roll, let alone one without a paddle. This is anything but easy.

@LukeBass100 a fat bastard can't do that w/out a paddle. NO videos yet

There´s no difference (or kind of "no") between rolling with hands in a pool and i whitewater. I even think it´s easier, because you can get more water pressure on your hand, when you turn in into the waterflow slightly ;)

Ususally when you flip, and need to roll, the weather elements such as the wind and waves, river current etc. tend to make it more challenging to roll, then rolling in a swimming pool.
i think its just very good editing there as her hands are always level.(but i dont now)

I find this video amazing. I wish I had a hand roll. It would be better to show the top of the water to see how you recover "in the air". Good job!

Thanks for the input. Our indoor kayak pool sessions start January 10th, 2008 in Brantford Ontario. I'll try to shoot some video of the recovery above water and post it as soon as I can.
Thanks for watching.
