White Water Rafting - DO IT!

[Jaz]

I went a month or so back, it's fuckin' ACE! Found a few photos from it, which is why I'm posting this now (I'm the one in the bottom left of the pic), but seriously if you get the chance, do it!

I probably did at some point.

Already did, great fun and not to mention the kick you get off swimming, or more correct trying to swim towards the currents... Did anyone get hurt ?

White Water rafting is really fun I gave it a shot when I went to tasmania a year or two ago with friends, it rules

I've found in my experience that one of the following happens when you go swimming in class 4 (or greater) whitewater.

1) You realize that you didn't want to be here, and that you are never coming back.

2) You realize that your near-brush with death has not dissuade your interrests in whitewater at all... and you are hopelessly addicted

3) You get stuck in an uncomfortable possition on a rock (or similar obstruction) and hopefully get rescued... then return to 1 or 2.

I've been swimming in class 4 whitewater a total of 3 times already... you guess which of the 3 happenned.

Also... It might just be that the picture was taken at the wrong time, but judging by the way the person in the rear-left (of the boat)is holding his paddle, looks like you had a lilly-dipper in your boat.
