Specially Designed Inflatable Hydrospeed Floats

We have carefully designed and manufactured inflatable hydrospeed floats specifically tailored for optimal maneuverability on the Guisane River. These floats are lighter, more stable, and boast excellent buoyancy, allowing you to navigate the river with ease and confidence.

Stay Warm and Protected in Neoprene Wetsuits

To combat the cold water temperatures, we provide integral neoprene wetsuits with reinforced sections on the legs and knees. These wetsuits are 5 mm thick, offering optimal insulation and protection.

Short Bodyboard Fins for Propulsion and Steering

For enhanced propulsion and precise steering, we provide short bodyboard fins. These fins allow you to effectively navigate the river, making swift turns and propelling yourself through the water with ease.
