In the sport of log rolling two competitors battle to be the last one standing atop a spinning, floating log. The competitors execute a series of movies to force the log to speed up, stop, switch directions, or give a boot of water to try and knock their opponent off the log and into the water. Sounds fun, right? Well, as it turns out, there are world tournaments for this sport and we are joined by the 2018 World Champion Tanner Hallett along with Katie Burke, another professional log roller. They're here to tell us all about the sport, competitions, and what makes someone a great log roller.
