Rolling practise Teignmouth Tues 13th Aug 18:00

Yesterday's rolling session was fun, the water was warm, seemed clean enough, and I'm already looking at the 'common faults' videos and wanting to go back to improve.

Anyone for next week? I'm not 100% sure I can make it, but if there's a small group it should be viable even if I can't. Stuart?

The tide at 18:00 on Tues 13th will be low, and just beginning to flood. It's a small tide though, so there should be enough water. Car park by the Teignmouth lifeboat station is free after 6.

Let's say max 6. NB mates trip, not club activity. Sort your own boats and transport.

Nose clips, ginger biscuits, face mask, paddle float, tea, sense of humour/humility will all be useful additions to your normal paddling kit.

    I enjoyed last Tuesday day, and realise that I need more rolling practice! I am content to just do a few personal practice rolls, and more than happy to help coach again / provide safety cover. Update - I will be in Wlitshire on the 13th so will not be able to come

    I've had it confirmed I'm paddling in north Devon on 14th, so probably pushing my luck to paddle Tuesday eve. Let's postpone... If others are available and keen they can still go ahead. Maybe the Tuesday after for me. I'll see nearer the time.

    i'd be interested in a different day. WIll keep an eye out for this.

    That would be fun, Shelley!
    It doesn't have to only be rolling either. I could do with more self rescue practice too.

    It was great to get in some rolling practice on Tuesday evening. Thanks to Maggie for organising and Nigel for his coaching. It was a good location, clear water and quiet.
    I am keen to do some more sessions though not next Tuesday and also happy to do a different day if that works for others.

    Not me, I'm out of tokens this week. But don't let that stop you.
