Book Reviews of Rolling a Kayak

Book Review: Best rolling guide ever
Summary: 5 Stars

Ken's book had just what I needed for bringing by roll up to snuff. My formerly bombproof roll in a displacement kayak was inconsistent in the newer boats. Ken's book's "debugging" tips helped me understand what aspects of my form were off and restore effectiveness and confidence. Especially in todays boats you need to lean and twist out much more lean forward. I've got a number of kayak books. This is the best info on rolling anywhere, especially for playboaters and surf kayakers.

My only suggestion would be to put a bit more emphasis on "cocking the wrists in" to the section on "blade dives during sweep".
