What type of footwear would be best with white water rafting and canyoning?
Filed Under Water Sports | Comments Off
Kristina L asked:
I have canyoning shoes, but my 2 friends don’t want to drop $100 on a pair of Keen or Tevas that they’ll probably never wear again. I was looking at reg sport sandals, but I’m concerned about the lack of toe protection. What about old sneakers that would dry out quickly? We’ll be repelling down waterfalls and we’ll get pretty wet with both activities. Does anyone have a suggestion / opinion on this matter?

éneri asked:
I’m going to go to a whitewater rafting guide school soon, so I want to be prepared with all the equipment I need; however, I am unfamiliar with the whitewater helmet manufacturers/ companies. I’m looking for the best quality for the price. I do hold quality over price in the long run though. Thanks for any help!

There are many places to go on a rafting guided tour that will provide exhilaration along with a beautiful atmosphere, but none of those locales can hold a candle to a Maui rafter tour. A Maui rafting tour will provide you with the beautiful Hawaiian backdrop while also providing you with the fun and exciting activity of white water rafting. You should have no problem finding a guided tour, and it’s recommended you go with a guide if you’re inexperienced or new to rafting. Even if you’re an expert, but you’ve never gone on a Maui rafting tour, it’s recommended that you go with a guide so that you can learn the ins and outs of rafting in the Maui countryside.
Finding a Guide
No matter where you go rafting, whether it be Maui or anywhere else, you need to find a guide who is familiar with that territory. There are many guides who are skilled at Maui rafting tours, you just have to find them. Many of these tour guides will advertise in the local Maui papers or even online. It’s also very common to see billboards and flyers around town advertising for Maui rafting tours. No matter how you go about finding your guide, you should make sure he or she is qualified to take you. Ask to see certification, see if you can get them to show you a license or anything else that tells you their qualified to take you on this tour.
Remain Safe
It’s easy to get wrapped up in the Maui countryside, with all its majestic beauty, but you need to pay attention to all the instructions provided by your guide. Your guide will show you the equipment you’ll be using, you’ll be shown how to use that equipment and you’ll be taken through a quick drill that will show you what to do in case you are ever in trouble. It’s important to pay attention to anything you’re told and remember to never be afraid to ask questions. When you’re out there on the rapids, it can get very hectic and that will be the wrong time to ask questions or to tell your guide you don’t understand something.
When you go on a Maui rafting tour, you’ll have such a great time that it’s likely you’ll want to return again and again. When you’re taken in by the beauty of Maui and when your heart gets racing from all the adrenaline pumping through your system, it’s easy to see why Maui rafting tours are so popular.

Kumar Gagendra asked:
River rafting tours have long been very popular vacation ideas for families, adventure lovers as well as anyone else who wants to experience the thrill and beauty of adventure tours rafting. What’s the big deal, though? Why are river rafting tours so popular? Well, you only have to experience river rafting touring one time to know why it’s such a popular vacation activity. When you’re going down that river, across rocks and rapids, and you’re experiencing nature first hand, while also working with the rest of your raft mates as you steer and maneuver the raft to its destination; there’s just nothing else like it.
The True Experience
You can’t just go on a river rafting tour with no experience and no education and expect to get the true experience. You have to be shown what to do, how to use the equipment, you need to learn the names of the equipment and how they work, and you need to learn how to be as safe as possible. That includes knowing what first aid techniques are important during a river rafting tour. How do you learn all of this? You can learn all this and more by listening to your guide when you show up to the river rafting tour.
All Included
When you sign up for a river rafting tour, you’ll be assigned a raft and a tour guide. There will usually be several others in the raft with you. The guide will go over all the equipment, will show you how to use it all and will kind of break down what the entire river rafting tour entails. All of the equipment is usually provided, including life jackets, the raft and oars as well as any safety and first aid equipment. You won’t have to worry about anything other than enjoying yourself.
Working Together
The best part about river rafting tours is that you’re working with the others in your raft towards a common goal. It’s a great way to experience teamwork first hand. Make sure you listen to your guide and ask any questions if you don’t understand. Before you go on your river rafting tour, you’ll be quizzed on how to use the equipment so that there aren’t any surprises once you’re out there.
After your first time, and each additional time you go, you’ll get better at river rafting tours and someday you’ll be able to go without a guide. To get the ultimate experience, however, and to truly see why river rafting is so popular, go with a guide your first few times you go so that you get the true experience.
