Adam - Thank you for saying the first one is correct...it is closer to  
being correct than the second one! You are right about the Center  
rule ;-))

Andre...The Same-Time Line (the Simultaneous Line) is not needed any  
longer...we assume the two hands are moving at the same time unless  
otherwise written...so you can take that little Same-Time line  
away...and do you really want a "rotation movement"? The Rotation  
Symbols mean that the arms stay in one place while they rotate...The  
Rotation Symbols mean "not traveling". But if you want a real  
traveling movement curving down, then choose the regular arrows,  
rather than a Rotation Symbol...

Here are my two versions of writing the sign for "canoeing". I have  
placed these writings in your Quebec SignPuddle dictionary...so you  
can find them there...Val ;-)
