Your ability to right the kayak and reenter it quickly and easily can spell the difference between a dunk and a disaster. Expert instructors Roger Schumann and Jan Shriner show the full range of capsize recovery techniques, suitable for beginners and experts alike. From the basic Paddlefloat Self-Rescue and T Rescue to the more advanced Kayak Rolls, this manual includes every technique you will ever need to get yourself - and others - back into a kayak in all sea conditions.
