This roll is not easy. Even Maligiaq Padilla has trouble with it sometimes.<br/><br/>Greg Stamer A video clip of the vertical sculling roll is on the Qajaq USA site at http://www.qajaqusa.org/Movies/movies.html .

So I'm trying to get it more "correct". :) Hey alex,

Rather I do a bit of a quick draw stroke with a hipsnap to pop me up. Greg Stamer describes the differences in his post here: http://www.qajaqusa.org/cgi-bin/GreenlandTechniqueForum_config.pl/noframes/read/487<br/><br/>Apparently Greg also used the draw method before learning the "proper" Greenland competition method. However as we're not going to Greenland anytime soon, I think that the vertical draw roll would be a good roll for you to work on at least initially.
