River rush boaterx race
fuelled by gull
$2,400 prize pool
Fast paced and full of energy, the River Rush BoaterX Race pits the white water kayakers in a tough head to head format. Launching from Vector Wero’s River Rush Boat Ramp, the river rodeo will see paddlers drop down from our ramp into a raging river, charge down the Grade 3-4 white water course and negotiate the obstacles and fight other racers for position.
Open to competitors of all ages, competitors will be ranked by time trial and then compete head to head. Competitors must paddle around inflatable tubes (gates), with the first two (2) competitors to complete the course heading through to the next round. If a competitor does not complete the race, they will be disqualified.
Please refer to the ICF approved boat list and Vector Wero's User Agreement to ensure your kayak will be accepted.
