River Boarding
River boarding on the Rogue or Salmon Rivers is the most intimate experience one can have with the river. When you lay on the river board with fins on your feet you FEEL the currents as you kick your way down the rapids. No longer do we just look at the surface of the river for waves, currents, and things to play on. With our river boards we learn to read the currents both on the surface and under to play on. Fly over the rapids and dive through the holes, before riding the eddie lines and surfing the waves. This is a new way to experience the river and it will change what you think is possible. If you are comfortable in the water and have not river boarded, it's time to start. This has become THE thing to do in New Zealand and now it has finally come to Oregon.
