Warm Rapids Inn
"Whether you’re a novice or intermediate paddler, having a solid kayak roll is important if you want to improve your confidence and skill level. While there are several ways to perform a kayak roll, the new low resistance, twisting version of the Sweep Roll is one of the most efficient rolls available and it’s relatively easy to learn."
