How does the IK experience differ from rafting?
For one, unlike the heavier rafts, these boats are nippy and maneuverable. Two, they put you at eye-level with rapids, adding a whole new perspective to your trip. You feel the rearing waves up close, everything seems bigger and more exciting in an IK and the likelihood of the odd fun swim is higher. Three, you are the captain of your own ship. You will learn to read river features, dig forward, back-paddle, rip down the middle or shoot that easy line on the left; work around rocks, holes and even surf-the boat is yours to command. The challenge in pitting your own skills and aggression against foaming whitewater is truly exhilarating.
