I'm not sure why I can't do it on the course yet but I tried twice on the lake and managed it twice, go figure...

You made that look easy   Twice!

Fantastic, you nailed it two times in a row perfectly.  I think you are letting the course psych you out.  You got this Bashy.

I know, right, i really surprised myself cause i hadn't tired it since  probably March, each time i go now i will keep trying it and hopefully i will get a consistent roll

Thanks and yeah, ya right, it definitely is doing that to me, I mean, you're upside down underwater, you're seeing bubbles all around, you're moving and you're wondering if the next block is going to hit your head, it is nerve-racking for sure.

I did manage a fantastic brace though, better than last time,  it was a good head-wetter lol
The video should be sorted soon, I just need to add some tunes

I'll keep an eye out for it.  

On your bike lol - not in a million years! That is harder than it looks!

Impressive and very handy to be able to do that!

The water is Chrystal clear.

Bet that’s refreshing - well done

nice one Bashy,   but you know were all sweating here and youre keeping cool doing that.

Yeah, on this i would agree, its deffo harder than it looks, or perhaps i make it look that way lol LD

I can be very handy, I just need to do it on the course now, it would save me from becoming exhausted by the 4th and 5th swim :/ and also, it would help me progress a lot faster and be very handy when i want to move on to the Olympic course (next year is what I'm thinking)

That is one of the reasons why I prefer it to our rivers, i know it's 99% cleaner lol

Would you believe that the water during the late Spring, Summer and early Autumn, it's warmer than any indoor pool I have ever been to? During Spring and Autumn, when it rains it feels like it warms up the water too, I love it there for the water temp alone as it is much, much warmer than our rivers and seas

I remember having to put my head under water when doing my PADI course to become a scuba diver  and that was bad enough.

The worst part about that course was having to remove my mask underwater, I did the advanced too although I'm not sure how I passed those 2 courses, oh yeah, he prompted me during the exam lol I had a great instructor

To be honest, in the Open Water Advanced, there's not a great deal to it, underwater navigation was 1 part that i do remember, I am pants at learning but a lot of it was read from the book with some practical, thats how i spent 1 week of my holiday lol, she wasn't amused pmsl.

Hahaha - well, we all have to compromise in marriages lol - it’s the putting my head under water while spinning on a canoe that I wouldn’t be able to do. Congrats again Bashy - that’s a serious achievement mate
