billvoss Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 A good time as usual in the pool at Haverhill. I'm sure Doug will have pictures up soon.Special congratulations to Joyce Carpenter (aka carpy) on her first roll! She immediately repeated it with a second roll as well! Nancy Hill deserves the credit for providing a kayak, paddle, and lots of tutoring to get Joyce over the hump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nancy Hill Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Joyce successfully completed 3 rolls in a row on each side. She made it look easy. When she moved on to her own kayak, she nailed a few rolls in hers as well, but by then tiredness had set in and it was time to quit while she was ahead.-Nancy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyce Carpenter Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Sorry I'm just noticing this thread now, but thanks for the acknowledgement! While I certainly don't mean to lessen Nancy's contribution to this feat, I have to say that I had lots of previous tutoring from Leslie Beale and Bill Voss. It took all three of them to get me there. And now I'm living in fear of the next pool session. What if I can't do it again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyce Carpenter Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 BTW -- it is only me, or does the tool bar not work in Firefox on Mac? It's fine in Safari. ...Oh wait, maybe not. The tool bar is there, but the emoticons all show as broken images. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eburgess Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Rolling is a much mental as it is physical - believe you can and you will. You'll do fine! See you tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyce Carpenter Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Actually I'm not signed up for tomorrow, but I will be trying to do it again at the session 2/8. See you for the nav session on Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
