After an awesome rafting trip a couple days ago, I decided to give hydrospeed a shot. People were talking it up and it was something I'd never tried before. Pretty much, you hold on to a plastic boogie board and go down rapids like that. There is a wetsuit, helmet and life jacket involved, but its pretty much just you and the rapids.
The rapids part was fun and didn't feel that fast or crazy. Steering was the main challenge as you use flippers to move around. With the current, and rocks, it made for a difficult trek. But it's one of those things I'll try once in my lifetime. Not going to do it agsin, but I felt a little like Butch and Sundance going down the rapids.
