Yeah I can do an Eskimo roll. Never got into it that much though. Logistics are difficult, usually two vehicles needed, sometimes lots of tramping through the bush. You want to go with competent people too. And I've heard it is the world's most dangerous watersport. I don't like to do sports where even if you do everything right, you could still die. Sure that is possible in any sport, but kayaking, sledding, and back country skiing seem to be a little too much past where I am comfortable in that regard, especially now that I am a father.
