Narrator: When a whitewater raft capsizes

Narrator: These swiftwater-rescue students

are professional whitewater-rafting guides

causing even the most experienced raft guides to capsize.

There are some rivers, it's a daily occurrence.

It's real important that you can keep yourself safe

Narrator: This 16-foot raft weighs 180 pounds,

so flipping it while it's being tossed around

Training begins when the students evacuate the raft

and flip it upside down to simulate an emergency scenario.

Students use the T-shaped grip at the end of their paddles

to hook the gig line on top of the raft's inflated tubes

as they pull the gig line in the opposite direction.

Instructor: Hey, remember guys, try to flop on your backs

Narrator: Putting your feet straight down in moving water

is one of the most dangerous things you can do.

Your foot can get stuck in between rocks,

the key is to have your legs out flat behind you.

Pull towards that boat and up at the same time.

Luckily, his classmates were able to untangle him,

but this could have quickly become a real emergency.

by their PFD, or personal flotation device,

and they're unable to swim against the current.

Well, you can get separated from your craft very quickly.

the team then paddled down to assist this student,

and give them somewhat of a format to follow

while they're going through that process.

Scott: For a lot of people that are new to guiding,

and so this kind of gives them a little bit

of comfort level for when the time does come.
