And lay your rods down in the boat BEFORE you go through.

Because once you get in the rapids, you won't have time lol...

seen a few windshields broke. heard a couple of boats getting caught sideways eventually sinking. if you commit you got to go thru even if you hit your sides when going WITH CURRENT. if try to to in reverse with current your gonna go sideways. the KEY is to go faster than current to have control of boat.
