Ahoy me Hartyies

Im new to your site and find reading your forums and adding to them quite intresting but some times as difficult to read as a treasure map.

Would anyone be intrested in helping me to create a dictionary of terms so that newbies can refer back to it, it may also help us all understand the differnt names differnt countries and areas use for the same move especially when it comes to playing about.

My first request has to be what is a C2C role i now about screw roles, storm roles, pawlata's and hand roles but am slightly lost about c2c :think:

I suggest you use the new Wiki for this:

playak.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

Here, everybody can create and edit content without me interfering...

Another starting point is the Playak encyclopedia, which I never launched officially, but it's there alright:

playak.com/modules.php?name=Encyclopedia...t_content&eid=10

:-)

oop, actually, it wasn't active _yet_ :-) it is now though:

playak.com/modules.php?name=Encyclopedia...t_content&eid=10

maybe someone wants to port all this info into the wiki? would make more sense right?

Thanks for moving all of that stuf i have just had a a quick look and am now finally satisfyed i know what a C2C roll is i have been doing it without knowing how silly. i have just been calling it a screw roll as that is the action you use

So next question why is it called a C2C roll is it to do with body position?

K is for Kayak 19 years 2 months ago #3349

couple of ledges but no boulders or anything like that the only reason i would need it to be flood is so i could roll when fences and bridges come up

there is a creek about 1/2 mile down the street that has a manmade dam on it that looks like it will either form a nasty hole or a sweet playspot

It has enough Gradient to be worth running it would be about a class 4 cause of no eddies
