"My Kayaking for November 2007"

Just me doing a hand roll in my little slice of orange this month.


Seems I managed to attend all four sessions at Ealing Pool this month, although for two of them my knee was swollen and on another I injured both my thumbs trying to pull somebody else's splash deck over my cockpit (fnar! fnar!) and it being too small pung back and bent my thumbs back a bit...they still hurt now! I was upside down at the time (entering a capsized kayak, fitting the splash deck and rolling back up right) and holding my breath for well over a minute as I was doing all this...that's my excuse anyway;) I managed to complete the move btw, but the kayak was half full with water!


Thursday 1st November 2007 @ 21:00pm, Ealing Pool, 90mins, I was all alone more or less tonight, Lee couldn't make it, Ian was sick and James didn't come either, Owen was there but was teaching someone to roll, the new guy (Paul) who drives the Bentley Continental GT learned to roll in just two sessions. Seems like a nice bloke.

Thursday 15th November 2007 @ 21:00pm, Ealing Pool, 90mins, I missed last weeks due to a fall on my bike and damaging my right knee!, Lee & Ian, more hand rolls.

Thursday 22nd November 2007 @ 21:00pm, Ealing Pool, 90mins, right knee ok now, but left knee puffy from a fall on Tuesday night in Swinley Forest on my bike, Owen filmed Becky & I performing synchronized hand rolls, Ian.

Thursday 29th November 2007 @ 21:00pm, Ealing Pool, 90mins, tonnes of rolls, very tiring!...but fun:)
