Went back to find this video to send it to another friend because I thought it was such a great video and I realized that I just met you in Chile when you gave Tyson and I are ride from the Temuco airport. Thanks for making such great videos!!

Este video es excelente!! Muestras y explicas con absoluta claridad y simpleza, el complicado proceso del roll. Lo he visto muchas veces y lo tengo como referencia para mi práctica. Muchas gracias!! Ya me he suscrito a tu excelente canal.🛶

Man I fcking love this guy- I want to be your friend

After an involutary 20 year break from from the joys of paddling, I've recently had the opportunity to start again. 20 years of rust is a lot and the muscle memory was initially slow to recover. Finding your channel, starting with Rolling Basics, has been invaluable. I love your presentation and approach to method and positive reinforcement. Brilliant and refreshing. The hand roll wasn't something I ever perfected, even at my best, which feels like a lifetime ago now... Your method isn't one I've seen before and I've just watched it for the first time. With a pool session tonight, and fresh visualisation to work with, I'm hoping now is the time to crack that nut... Great channel, great enthusiasm. Inspirational. Subscribed and eager for more as the rust flakes away. Keep on keeping on 🥳

Hypothermia isn't really the concern.. that misses the key danger of cold water shock which is instant. You're probably more likely to seize up and drown well before you get hypothermia. It kind of scares me how widespread this lack of knowledge is. Search 'cold water safety'.

Very cool channel. Thanks again.

Solid video! The key to rolling is deeefinitely staying calm and being patient, waiting for the right time! :)

TO CONSOLIDATE MASTERY & CONFIDENCE ONCE YOU'VE GOT THE TECHNIQUE .... *Don't just roll once, roll 3 or 4 times in succession* Why? Because you will really slide effortlessly in to a great co-ordination sequence after practicing it several times. [Its EASIER too because you don't have to schdule in stopping once upright]

This is the only video which tells fundamental concepts and logically explains why! The best how to roll video.

Can you make a video on how to spot dangerouse features and sticky holes?

Great video Thankyou , just a question Do you still keep the box shape when low bracing into waves ect??

Thanks for the awesome review! I'm in the market for a creek boat that offers performance and stability in larger volume Class 4 western rivers and with sufficient hull space to pack gear for my occasional 4-5 night self-support trips. You addressed the majority of questions I had in comparing the Flow and Gnarvana and now all I need is to see one (and paddle one) in person to make sure it will hold my self-support gear.

A very clear, useful, helpful wideo. Thanks muchly.

This is a fantastic "emotional safety pitch"... applies to most of evrything...even teaching tango

Thanks for the great advice, I've recently fallen in love with Rivers and all of their power and purity.. Mother Nature is incredibly awesome and inspiring~~~

Boyd, I live in middle TN and wonder if you give private lessons? If so let me know and I can give you my email. No worries if you don’t.

I teach the Greenland rolling style (back sweep, butterfly, reverse sweep, storm roll, etc). For students not getting the roll the first time i give them a homework, to visualise the roll 10 times before going a sleep and 10 times after waking up. This reinforces the muscle memory and the next rolling session will be much easier. Otherwise I use much of the same techniques as you do. Good video.

Great tutorial,looking it from San Carlos Costa Rica,see you at the river ...

You make it so easy to understand! I wasn’t having any fun on the water and I could only find sea kayaking videos. Now I’m finally making progress. It was so relieving to hear that it’s hard to learn

見える向きでやってくれ！

How about the fact some People cant reach the top of the surface with their paddle?

The Flow looks sweet. Thank you for the review and info. I am new to WW. Sticking to creeks and some rivers class I-II mostly. I am 180-190 so not sure if a medium or large would be best.

My number one rule: Stay in your protective plastic shell.

Thank you so much for the professional advice to this most excellent sport. Am registering to the local kayak classes and hope to find an excellent instructor. I loved the sections when you emphasized “time and repetition”, “relaxed and tensions”, core “muscles memory” and lastly the “shampoo commercials” head tilt.

Ganz wunderbar erklärt - herzlichen DANK und Grüße

Helped at Westwater Utah this spring.

... oh man ... best video yet . Thank you !

A photo of waterfall run got me into kayaking 30 years old ago:))

I look at something scary that I'm thinking of doing. I think am I really going to do this? And then I think yes and I go. And at that moment I'm focused and not really afraid. And it generally works out fine, to my surprise sometimes and gratitude. Sometimes I say those words but I'm really sort of faking the feelings and it doesn't work out so well

Great video. May I also recommend getting into your boat on a nice grassy lawn. Great place to start learning and perfecting your hip snap. Any you roll back up, try dragging your hair across the lawn. Also, in the water, you can tell the first time you get the hip snap. You may find yourself not stopping and going over the other way!

Thanks Boyd for the good advice. I’m competent grade 3 but my roll was always 50/50 in it, and affected my confidence in that regard. I’ve not kayaked over a year, but itching to get back to it now, and work on my roll in the rapids

Good job. Hand paddles can help make the hip snap stronger and discourage using the paddle to "lever' up.

And I thought I knew everything about rolling, wow such detailed list of technical aspects, thank you so much!

We don't have a lot of big water but when we do have a huge wave I always wind up riding right up the face of it and getting flipped on my back just like you describe around 12:20. Great video.

Seems like every JK paddler's tutorial on the backdeck has an awkward finish in my opinion. Curious to your thoughts on Michele Ramazza's version. ua-cam.com/video/oO8l54MpHn8/v-deo.html

Is a no-hand roll possible? Like just using the momentum of going under combined with the hip snap?

Oh good…glad I’m not the only one spinning around in circles their first time in a WW boat lol

Great video, there's so much to unpack! I'm sure I'll be watching this video many times in the next few weeks while starting to teach. Thanks for sharing! :)

There are zero "smooth rocks" in Idaho. It's all boat destroying volcanic rock.

I would never try floating over a hole in a box boat, but I do have an Indra which h as a slicey tail.

What of yak wool? It's supposedly better than merino.

The big risk is NOT hypothermia. It's cold water shock which paralyzes you. It takes a while to get hypothermia.. At least that is true in the west during early season snow melt run off.

Superb explanation of how to learn to roll with confidence! It is a really nice feeling when you feel your kayak rolling smoothly upright during a smooth hip flick movement. Very much appreciated!

Might need a ankle bracelet like a surfer 🏄

Boyd, Nice one! If I may ask, how do you secure your earplugs? To your helmet? And which are these?

Great video, Boyd! Love this series!

Great content Boyd!

This is a very practical aspect of the roll . In normal situations you often are in shallow water making the roll nigh on impossible. Good video

If you stop the loud noise from from the unnecessary intro I might watch the video. You are not making a universal movie . Just cut to the chase . The thumbnail is enough

Love the content as usual but I did have a question about it: I’ve had an instance on a manky SE creek, South Sauty, where I was trying to dry bow everything. I ended up shooting right over a hole but landed directly into an FU rock hidden under the water with all of that momentum and flipped super fast. I was like inches away from destroying my face on a rock. Any advice on when to use the dry bow paddling and then when to maybe be a little more conservative in maintaining a strong stance without exaggerated movements to make braces more effective? Or, which this could be likely too, did I just have bad from in the dry bow paddling and end up leaning too far back or something? What I’m currently thinking is to use dry bow paddling for a planned purpose like on the side seam of a tongue to dodge a beefy hole in bigger water, and maybe paddle a little more conservative in something super manky. Thanks as always and keep it up!
