Great video.
I have just got myself a burn 2.
So might see you around as I’m in the reading area not to far to Lee valley.

Thank you and cool, it's a nice boat considering the age, is yours the B.2 or Burn 2 (there is a slight difference by all accounts, I prefer my Burn 2 to the Burn 3, as I kept on getting my foot stuck behind the pillar during some wet exits, also the cockpit is narrower at the front on the Burn 3 which makes it a little more awkward to exit, but then it does have a flatter cockpit which make sit easier to fit the spray deck so swings and roundabouts lol. Have you done the Legacy assessment at LV? If so, I am down there for 2 hours starting at 9:30 this Saturday (29th June) :)

hello just a little advice when you roll try to come out of the water forward because in white water you risk turning around

Thanks for the tip :)

How long did it take you to roll in that video to get at that point

Hi, not quite sure if you mean altogether or just in the video, if just in the video, that was it, 2 tries, 2 rolls, if altogether, then over the summer last year i tried on my own over 3 sessions (on the river) and rolled once i think out of about 20 tries, that was in my Ethos 9. Then i went to the pool over the winter using an old Waka Tutea (i think) and tried during 2 sessions, rolled twice out of 2 tries on one session and failed 2 tries on the other session. All in all, I havent really tried that many times, most of my learning was on youtube watching River Kings lol. I did try again last Saturday at LV at the end of the session, I did 1 try and failed. Each time I got to LV now I will practice the roll, hope that wasnt too confusing lol :)
