What you need:
#1 Solid rolling ability: not that you have to make the first one every time, but the ability to go for it till you get it is key.
#2 Class III/IV rapid experience: big water, classic river runs, lots of 3+… whatever you’ve got let us know.
#3 Endurance: sure, the current does most of the work, but adrenaline takes its toll. Basic fitness will be expected.
#4 A go-for-it attitude: the ability to miss a roll or two and come up paddling and with a smile in the eddy at the bottom isessential to keeping your game sharp from the first rapid to the last.
#5 Equipment: all your own gear, a rope, snack for the river and float bags in your boat.
