FAQ Hydrospeeding Depending on your group size we recommend booking a few days or even weeks in advance. The risks involved in Hydrospeeding are no higher than on the way to the place of the activity with the car, probably less. Just like driving a car, there is a certain amount of risk involved. Through highly trained staff, professional behaviour and careful selection of the best equipment, we try to reduce this risk as much as possible. In general no! Wet you will be anyway by making Hydrospeeding. Your equipment is specially designed for the cold. In the event of heavy rain resulting in a significant rise in water that would make the practice of Hydrospeeding unsafe, your descent will be cancelled. You will then have the possibility to postpone your adventure to another date. You only need to come wearing normal clothing and shoes. We will give you all required Hydrospeed equipment. You just need a bathing suit or similar to wear underneath this. Please bring a warm Fleece or other jumper/pullover, as well as a towel and a strap for your glasses if you have glasses (hard contact lenses are not very suitable for Hydrospeeding). If you require any medication please tell the guides beforehand and we can arrange to carry it for you egg asthma spray or anti allergy drugs. We will provide you with complete equipment including a wetsuit, jacket, neoprene gloves and slippers, fins, helmet and lifejacket. After each use the neoprene equipment is disinfected. Only if it is waterproof! Swissraft does, however, decline any responsibility for lost or damaged personal items. If you definitely want to take pictures during Hydrospeed we advise you to take a cheap, waterproof disposable camera, whose loss won't hit you so hard. Each Hydrospeed trip will be under the control of a professional Hydrospeed Guide. The various trips we offer have different minimum ages. In our brochure and on our website you will find the minimum ages for each activity. No ! Knowing how to swim well is essential. Swimming in white water is not the same as swimming in a pool. Yes! Excellent fitness is required. No! Hydrospeeding is an outdoor activity to be taken seriously and requires the full concentration and reaction ability of the participants. Before and during the tour there should not be any alcoholic or hallucinogenic substances consumed. We will refuse to carry any people under such influences. For cancellations, please consult our general conditions.
