Yes , we like teaching new paddlers the hand roll first , to ensure that they have the confidence to roll when they don't have their paddle. This is to get them comfortable in a scenario where they don't have paddle in hand. Also, this helps free up their hands when handling the ball , as beginners that only know how to paddle roll , will tend to hold on to their paddle in cases where the ball is within arm's reach.
@@88kayak As shown in the video , the most inportant about the hand roll is hips and head. Turn with your hips and keep your head as far back as possible for the duration of the roll. Next is just getting the feeling of how much you need to use your hands(combined with hip rotation) to get yourself up.
I would recommend beginner do not use the spray deck at first. Let it fill with water. You will get to gain confidence with your hips movement. After you get the hang of it, put the spray deck on and you will be able to do it easily. In my opinion, with a ball is the hardest. you can combine the roll with passing or shooting as a drill. ( it suprise your opponents every single time) P.S. Sorry for the grammar, English is not my first Language
The technique (obviously the one with the ball is not) is applicable to situations of rolling a kayak outside of the sport. Where the difference comes in is that some situations require methods of keeping yourself safe (around rocks in rivers etc…).
Yea it is, but with our beginner paddlers, it is important for us to teach them the hand roll first, to make sure that they are comfortable without the paddle.
The very first thing you should learn is getting out of the boat while being underwater. Otherwise it might go very wrong. But still a very good tutorial.
All of these are very helpful. Thank you. I look forward to more.
This is the first video I ever seen that recommends doing a hand roll before a paddle roll.

You help me out with this video! 💪🏻
Thanks guys this helped me a lot
Probably should say how this is specific to the sport. Very different outside of a pool.

Ha! Nice video, but I don't recommend telling beginners, "The paddle roll is very easy." ;-)
