It is a day to remember. Finally, on the 16th of February, in the presence of my paddling kakis, I did my first floop.
Think it has been more than 2 years since Jacob first did the floop, but I have only been trying to do it practicing in spurts, busying myself with a lot of other things. Having been practicing more regularly now, I have got used to some of the required movements, but it was only today that I caught 2 more details to doing it -
1) Takeoff angle must be forward-leaning and not purely vertical.
2) After throwing the body forward, the back-arching and legs throwing forward must be done immediately before hitting the water.
Now to replicate the success in my own playboat, and to aim for consistency and adaptability.
