I have been paddling for four years and really love it. I try to get out at least once a week. I was an instructor's aide at TVCC paddling school last year and highly recommend it. I should be there this year as well. I have a good roll on my onside and am working on an offside roll. I have a pretty reliable combat roll. I am to the point that I am starting on the Ocoee, and working up to harder runs. I look forward to mastering more difficult skills. I also enjoy a class I-II float trip for the company and scenery. I like helping new boaters work on their skills. I am a home improvement contractor (http://www.aarc.net) and have a flexable schedule. Call me up & I'll throw the boat in the van!
