Much like the kayak technique some rafts are large enough that they need to be overturned with the assistance of another raft or land.
Positioning the upturned raft or land at the side of the raft the rafters can then re-right the raft by lifting up on the perimeter line.
Occasionally rafts will flip end over end.
This is usually after the raft has dump trucked to lighten the load, allowing the water to overcome the weight of the boat flipping it vertically before it lands upside down.
Whitewater kayaks differ from sea kayaks and recreational kayaks in that they are specialized to deal with moving water better.
This essential skill of whitewater kayaking is called the Eskimo Roll or simply Roll. Kayaks are paddled in a low sitting position , with a two-bladed paddle.
It is usually paddled by a two person crew, though highly skilled paddlers are able to negotiate extreme whitewater in a Shredder paddled as a solo boat.
Rafters can expect to encounter substantial whitewater, huge waves, huge rocks and hazards, and/or substantial drops that will impart severe impacts beyond the structural capacities and impact ratings of almost all rafting equipment.
