Play Boating If you've ever tried to do a trick in your kayak then you've already taken the first step towards becoming a play boater. The term 'playboating' describes the act of using a river's natural features such as waves, eddy lines and holes, to perform tricks. It's all about trying to get your boat to surf, spin, bounce and cartwheel, while you get wet and have as much fun as possible with your mates. |
