Description
Sledge grade 2 to 3 white water on custom built sledges! Sturdy, easy to hold on to, very buoyant and highly manoeuvrable, the sledge keeps you slightly above the water. This is an action packed white water adventure for true water lovers. A great way to get up close and personal with the mighty rapids of the Kawarau River!
