I put on the hood and headed out on some flat water today for some cold water recovery and rescue practice with the Pilgrim.  The goal was to work on off-side rolls, sculling, bracing, failed brace recovery and some self-rescues.  All was good and I was very glad to wear the hood. Even goofed off with a rodeo roll and burrito roll.  A few cowboy scrambles and renter and roll drills rounded out the morning.
