PRACTICAL RAFTING TIPS
All rafters will be given a safety
briefing before the ride and will be shown basic backward and
forward padding techniques. Always check that the helmets and life
jackets provided fit you well and are not too tight or too loose.
Your life jacket will buoy you in the eventuality of the raft
overturning. If you've over-turned close to the river bank,
don't use your raft paddle, as you may hit someone else. Do not
attempt to use the paddle as a lever against rocks as you risk
getting hit byit.
The following are some points to
remember:
-
Bring a change of clothes. A warm-up
jacket is also a good idea.
-
Wear well-fitting shoes or diving
booties.
-
Jewellery which cannot be secured firmly should not be worn while
rafting.
-
Those wearing glasses are reminded to use an elastic sports holder
to anchor their spectacles.
-
Contact lens users are advised to wear spectacles instead, in
order to cut down the risk of their lenses getting contaminated byriver water.
