C-to-C Roll - Mechanics

Mechanics

A properly done kayak roll should take little or no effort and ties into other paddling skills like bracing and hand rolls. The C-to-C roll can be easily outlined into four steps:

  • Set Up
  • Sweep
  • Hipsnap
  • Finish

A successful execution of the four steps rewards the paddler with a right-side-up position.

Famous quotes containing the word mechanics:

    the moderate Aristotelian city
    Of darning and the Eight-Fifteen, where Euclid’s geometry
    And Newton’s mechanics would account for our experience,
    And the kitchen table exists because I scrub it.
    —W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
