What do you need to prepare for drifting in summer?

1, trousers

Drifting for a long time, the skin is directly exposed to the sun after contact with water, and it is easy to get sunburned. Try to wear quick-drying clothes.

2. Sunscreen products

Sunscreen products include wide-brimmed hats, outdoor headscarves, sunscreen, sunglasses, glasses rope (to prevent sunglasses from falling off) and so on. You can use it according to the weather at that time, and try to wrap yourself tightly.

3. Beach shoes

Water is bound to enter during drifting, and it is easy to be scratched if you disembark barefoot or capsize, so sandals are the best choice.

4. Waterproof bag

Waterproof bags can be used to store items that are afraid of moisture, such as mobile phones, cameras, lighters, cigarettes and so on. It is suggested that articles should be put into sealed plastic bags first, and then into waterproof bags. Because the moisture on the river is heavy, and the river is cold and the sun is hot, the waterproof bag will also regain its moisture. Waterproof bags must be tied to the boat or body with ropes or quick hooks to avoid unnecessary losses caused by accidents.

5. Water flushing tools

You can use any tools, such as water bottles and water scoops. It is easier to use a ladle when there is more water in the boat, and mineral water is very convenient when there is less water. At the same time, water scouring tools are also very helpful in water warfare.

Step 3: gloves

Rowing is essential in rafting. In order to prevent our little hands from grinding bubbles when rowing, it is recommended that you bring a pair of thin gloves and protect yourself from the sun.

Drift prevention measures

Drifting is a challenge of physical strength and courage. While you seek excitement and enjoy happiness, you should also pay attention to safety and master some skills.

1. During drifting, don't carry anything that is afraid of getting wet, so as not to fall or be damaged, because there are many falling areas and a big drop.

2. Friends who wear glasses are tied with rubber bands in advance. You must always wear a life jacket in case you capsize when you are not paying attention.

Pay attention to the arrows and slogans along the way when drifting, which can help you to be alert to the falling water area in advance.

4. When going down the rapids, grab the handrail on the inside of the boat, and the person sitting behind will lean back slightly to ensure the balance of the boat, parallel to the river and go down the river.

You can't get up in a hurry when the ship is stuck. You have to hold the boat steady and find a good foothold before you can stand up.

Tips for drifting specialty

1, downstream, when the water is wide and the river is slow, you can enjoy the surrounding scenery, but when you encounter rapids and rapids, you need everyone to work together with Qi Xin and Qi Xin to use various skills to cross the boat.

2. Before reaching the dangerous beach, you can predict the general direction of the downstream; Then call on everyone to close the oars, put their feet back in the boat and get together. Grasp the protective rope beside the boat with both hands, lean down, don't stand up, and keep the center of gravity of the boat stable.

3. When the river flow is large, eddies often appear. At this time, you should try to avoid being involved and bypass it. If you are involved, keep calm and let the boat spin along the whirlpool. When you turn to the periphery of the whirlpool, everyone can paddle out of the predicament with all their strength.

4. Keeping steady and avoiding collision are the principles that must be observed in the drifting process. When it is really unavoidable, control the hull from the angle of frontal collision (side collision can easily lead to capsizing) and hold on to the rope.

After the collision, the ship will be parallel to the shore. At this time, passengers on this side should pay attention to closing their feet to avoid being caught. Sometimes ships will get close together, so in order to avoid collision, both sides should cooperate with each other, paddle in opposite directions or touch the hull.

6. Where there are dense stones, the waterway becomes narrower, the water depth becomes shallower, the water flow becomes urgent, and it is easy to run aground. At this time, there is no need to panic. You can support the stone with paddles and force the ship to leave the stranded place.

7. If this trick doesn't work, send someone into the water to pull or push the boat back into the current from the side, or ask the shore staff to help, and the boat puller should be quick and pay attention to safety.

Preparation before drifting

1, take more clothes: drifting will inevitably get "wet", and it is very uncomfortable to change without dry clothes after landing. Do not wear leather shoes, flat slippers (pay attention to the straps to prevent loss), plastic sandals and sports shoes. The weather is bad, the water is cold, and the weather is good. Pay attention to cold protection and sun protection. It is best not to use expensive clothes, shoes and hats for rafting.

2. Don't bring things that are afraid of water: it is recommended to store all mobile phones, wallets and valuables, and you can't use drifting kayaks for things that are afraid of water.

Parents should know that children under 1.4m are not allowed to drift. Old people over 60 can't take part in rafting. In addition, standing, touching casually and doing dangerous actions are not allowed. During drifting!

Tips:

1. Please take care of your valuables before launching.

It is very dangerous to drift in the canyon. When drifting, you must wear a helmet and a life jacket. When you are on a dangerous beach, you must hold the safety handle on the kayak with both hands.
