Help with Roll

Post by keithmasill81 »

So I hit the pool for my first try at rolling and had mixed results. If you would be so kind to take a quick peek and tell me what I am doing right and wrong. I can't seem to tell the difference between a successful roll and a failure (they all look like a struggle to me). Thanks for any feedback.

Two things:
1 don't let go of the t grip. You should roll with the non powerface of your blade.
2 get the elbow of your shaft arm above the shaft. You want to push down on the shaft rather than pull it.
