In Response To: What about all-rounders ? *LINK* (mick)

: I know a young guy guy who paddles slalom well enough to be on his way to
: Athens this year. And he also won a local sea-kayak rolling contest
: (including rolling with a brick). And he also came first in freestyle team
: selection. So you might want to be careful who you send to the Greenland
: National Kayaking championship ;-) Some paddlers it seems can do it all.

Don't take it wrong, I would never disrepect the skills of ww boaters. The skill set required to just make it home in that environment is awesome. It must weed out all the stuff that sea kayakers find (unprepared people who don't take what they're doing seriously until they're in the water praying to the guy they're about to meet).
I was more taking issue with the attitude that ww boaters are the beginning and the end, having a sea kayak is some sort of handicap. We all need to get along, it's all water and it's all good.
