Rolling and comparing the Tahe Greenland kayak
Pierre-Yves (a French kayak-enthusiast) kindly allowed to publish this video of his friend Pierre-Dominique demonstrating some Greenland-style rolling with the Tahe Greenland kayak. They compared the Tahe Greenland to the Valley Anas Acuta: with a similar traditional hard-chined, low-volume-design, the Tahe is much faster and easier to roll. (And from own experience I can tell the Anas Acuta is already a great kayak to roll!).
Side to side to the Tahe kayak - the graceful Anas Acuta looks like a giant!
Thanks Pyve for video and pictures!

Hi Pyve!
That's a very nice video again. I am impressed by the clean forward ending Norsaq rolls of Pierre Dominique! Wauw!
Greetings,
Hans
haha - brilliant, made me laugh - i'm just starting off in sea kayaking and had the sense to 'enroll' in the 2 day course with oban kayaks (scotland).
nearly drowned doing the rescue part because i forgot to breath in! (must have looked pathetic!).
nearly drowned in the the pub after too.
greetings,
niall.
Hi Niall, Have fun with learing the roll! greetings,
Hans
