- A brief illustration of how to Eskimo roll a kayak on dry land. Its a great way to practise good technique and develop muscle memory without getting wet, scared or needing an assistant.
You are correct in noticing some pressure on the paddle blade, but it needs to be very little. In my experience, it works best with a good hip snap and very little pressure on the paddle. If you try to do it all with your arms/paddle, you will not come up (as happens in the water). So when practising, it is important to focus on minimising pressure on the paddle and maximising the hip action.
This video helped me master my roll!! After practicing on land a few times I had no problems rolling in the water!!!
Thankyou Mandy, this the best video re rolling I have seen.
Awesome! This is the first time I've seen the roll on dry land. Great exercise for perfecting the hip flick. Much more understandable. Thanks.
AWASOME! I started going to a swimming pool once per week, hoping I will learn it during winter. If I knew it is possible to do it on land, I wouldn't have waited for winter, would have started practicing in summer on grass :-) Thanks for hint, I'll definitely use it.
Very practical. Thank you for the demonstration.
I did it on the bed just for practising the move, without kayak or paddle, works great.
I'm not in a position to do that right now, but will try to do it as soon as I can. It looks pretty funny - because the paddle doesn't slice across the ground in the same way that it does on/in water, the kayak rotates instead.
So simple yet I needed to see it to understand. Good video.
Very good practice. Now to get a kayak!
you made that look so easy!
This was a great help, and it works thanks for your time, mark from malta
My only concern as I watch this is that it seems to me you are getting a little push off the tip of the paddle against the lawn when you in the process of hip snapping. Are you not "memorizing" leverage that will not actually be there once in the water? Otherwise great for practicing body position and technique and exercising the core so I still think it's a great idea.
You are most welcome.
That was useful, thank you!
Merci votre technique m'a bien aidée
sencillo, claro y eficaz. gracias por compartirlo
Merci !!
Tank you !!!
Hope it helps!
This video helped me
Good stuff, but be careful of 'Lawn sausages'
You're expecting too much of a single training tool. I agree with your points A and C, but her rotation looked fine for this roll, and if you look carefully she never hyper-extends her shoulder. It looks safe.
Points A and C are down to this being a simulation. Yes, a real roll will be different, but the basics are there. The biggest problem for a beginner is getting your head round what the hell is going on, and I think this would help a lot. I'm going to try it out on some beginners.
Yes, but you can also do a sweep roll - but the kayak moves more than the paddle.
👍👍👍
Good
Can you add a sweep roll demonstration?
thanks
looks easier than what I'm doing lol
Shouldnt this 'in theory' work without the paddles? Would be interesting to see.
thanks ;)
Interesting...
u rule!!!!!!!!!
But why would you do this on dry land? How?
Its a way of understanding and slowly going through the motion and developing muscle memory without needing help in the water. Not a substitute, but for some people, helpful all the same.
@creativepursuitsllc I've been trying my first attempts at rolling a 13' paluski. Filtering thru hundreds of vids, many dated by years & decades.
After 8 wet exits off shore & bailing, I am ready to try some dry exercises. I must say, everyone emphasizes paddle brace & push & leverage. I will try to relax this next attempt.
Also ppl say to roll without a skirt, in order to prevent panic, etc. I would've thought the kayak would flood & swamp any attempt at a roll?
I believe too I was curled too much & summersaultiing beneath, bringing my head up first. And reaching wildly with the paddle, pulling myself out of the kayak.
Keeping an arm braced to the kayak, and watching lead blade should correct this...
Also ppl say nylon skirts are no good for rolling - but no one says exactly why? Do they have a tendency to pop off? Thanks!
check out you tube dry land kayak tool practice technique by Rich Shipley on you tube. This guy did it, but it's a guy and would like to see a woman do it.
Thanks
can someone please tell me what kind of a kayak that is???
It is a Jackson Fun 1 1/2 - I love this little boat, have had it since 2006.
@@creativepursuitsllc awesome! thank you!
@@juliecrabb8896 You are welcome. PS I am 63, so its not just for kids!
all true stay in the shuttle car
When are you ever gonna paddle across your lawn and why would you capsize there. I prefer rivers or creeks myself but to each there own.
We have a very uneven lawn - I prefer rivers too.
isnt that a c to c roll
Almost any decent kayaker (and by that I mean not a beginner) CAN roll with out a paddle.
Coooooooool story 🐓
the title of the video should give you a clue as to why
She on grass?
A. Wrong. And, she'd have to go even deeper to satisfy your point C
B. Different kind of roll. Google: "c to c" roll very little rotation
B2. Her form looks identical to the guy in "How To: Do a C to C Kayak Roll" byt user NRSWEB
C. The blade can't be flat on the ground unless the whole paddle is laying on the ground. She's not slicing with the tip or stabbing. That's just geometry of demonstrating a level upsidedown activity while sidway on a level plane.
I think you're just contrarian.
Silly!
people dont listen to this woman for 4 reasons:
A paddle went too deep
B did not use full rotation
B.2 ended the stroke on a high brace doing so COULD result in stain or dislocation
C. she pushed off the floor with the tip of the paddle as apposed to the blade itself
if you copy this technique it will not succeed as well as a roll using correct technique or at all
You pushed off the grass sorry bad video u should be able to roll it with just your hips
