My Kayak Roll Learning Experience (2)

After my club members helped me to get my first standard Greenland roll, I practiced

again and again, tried to build up muscle memory. However, at the next pool session, I

had only a few success rolls, failed most of the time. At a point, I thought to quit. How

could I lost it? Again, my buddies cheered me up, encouraged me to refine my gesture.

There are so many tiny bits need to be connected in a smooth sequence. The only way

I could do was to practice many many times so some of the move I just did without

thinking.

At the third pool session, my success rate had more than 80%. I have regained my

confidence.
