Each person knows what their craft is capable of in reguards to their personal level of tubing. If you are able to tackle fast water, I'm glad for you.[

I'm just trying to help a beginning tuber out.
If a beginner asks" Can I take the rapids on the Colorado River with this? The answer is NO!
On the other hand, if I was personally teaching the fellow tuber, I could possibly work him/her up to a level of proficiency so that mild flowing rivers could be an everyday type of tubing adventure.
Being familiar with the water is good sound advice. A good PFD is always recommended. Knowing your own personnal limitations is a must. Using your craft for what it was intended for could save a life. Possibly your own.[cool]
