The roll is the most essential skill in kayaking this is because without it you can’t get back up to do your cool tricks. The first step is to make sure your skirt tab is in (because it will keep you in your boat better of course). Then you need to flip over. After you have flipped over, then you need to drop your paddle this is because it is extra drag making it harder. After you have thrown your paddle you want to straighten you back so that your head is pointing straight down to the ground. The next thing you want do is violently throw you body around until you create whirlpools. This will begin to bring your boat down so that it will shoot up (the deeper the better). Make sure to grab a fish while you’re down there (it will help you, trust me). As soon as you launch back up out of the water push down on your toes, and you got a roll.
