Dalla quarta di copertina

Okay, your boat flipped. Now what? Whitewater paddling is exciting, adventurous - and sometimes risky. That's why every whitewater paddler needs the skills so clearly defined in River Rescue. With even more illustrations and photographs, this completely revised new edition will help prepare you for a great river adventure. You'll find expanded material on big-water rescue, including new gear and methods; on self-rescue and rescue of others, by hand, boat, rope and other methods; on tools and techniques, including rope work, throw bags, boat handling, and high- and low-tech gear to use when seconds count; and on rescue organization, including leadership, teamwork, patient care, evacuation and more.
