I was wondering where all the hits on the southern WI paddlers forums were coming from today? Now I know- Thanks for the promotion!

They say if you want to get rich, hang around rich people. I think I’m going to start hanging around Alex, maybe some of those rolls will rub off on me.
:o )

Hope to see you on the water this weekend!

I wonder if Lamar is going to host another symposium this spring?

Church Street Deli in Swansboro makes a superb pastrami sandwich…

Alex, I enjoyed your roll videos!

Believe me, when I hit that roll, EVERYONE will know. Even before that, I still have to get my elbow roll and forward finishing hand rolls much more consistent and also I need to learn them on my offside. Also those darn sculling rolls (under the hull and foredeck) need to be addressed at some point! Oh and I cant forget about getting my third end on my cartwheel or learning to bow stall more than 3 seconds... It should be a fun winter! What I love about working on the straitjacket roll is that everytime I attempt it, I know there is a possibility that I will hit the roll and the potential for that happy moment keeps me going. I'll keep my fingers crossed for some luck at Lake Columbia. :) I’m still waiting for that straitjacket roll myself! Believe me, when I hit that roll, EVERYONE will know.
