I always miss all of these sessions and I've been a student (and a kayaker) up here for four years, so I'm semi-determined to make it to one. Just got into serious whitewater paddling last year, and was working on my roll through trial by fire and youtube videos haha. Sadly, I was trying to learn in a Pyranha 420 (which was terrible) and due to an injury and me just really disliking the freakin thing, I got rid of it, and just now got into another boat. My paddling and bracing and even basic knowledge of rolling is good, just need to get that damn roll down. Figured this might be the best place to figure that out. Let me know if I'm right! Thanks,

Jake

It's a good place to come play. No organized instruction from the OCC staff, but their are usually plenty of ACC'ers there to help you out. We do have boats and gear, so you don't need to worry about not having a boat.

Thanks,

Yeah, well I just snagged a mamba last weekend so that's the one I'd be wanting to practice getting a roll down in. Anyways, I'll try to make it as long as school or anything else doesn't get in the way.
