This entertaining and effective instructional video is an excellent tool in learning how to roll a kayak.  This video demonstrates a step by step breakdown of the paddle roll and teaches the secret of the hand roll.  Also included are helpful hints on learning the off-side roll, an insightful look at bracing, and how to do all of this in whitewater.

The DVD version includes a section on the sweep roll and an update for modern planing hull kayaks.  There is also some more bonus material such as bloopers from the original version.
