[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 363394, member: 13599"] I just talked with a guy at [b]BPS[/b] about his homemade poling platform - - - - He had the same learning curve that my brother went through. LOL LOL he said it was so painful to fall into the boat, that he actually borrowed a neighbors "gym mat" - - a 2" thick vinyl covered foam pad to put into the back of the boat to cushion his falls. And he agreed that if you are practicing [i]ALONE[/i], to have a lanyard to your body because it is natural act of Newtons Law when you fall off. Your feet automatically pushes the boat AWAY from you. Any kind of breeze can quickly but a big distance between you and your boat if you are slow to recover from your fall. be [i][b]SAFE SAFE SAFE[/b][/i] [/QUOTE]
