Raft jump

Recommended Posts

I've seen a lot of pictures of people jumping inflatable rafts. Looks really cool, but what are the up's and downs?

What experience level is recomended?
What dangers are there?
Precautions?

There is some good information about raft jumps in this thread.



Only things that I didn't see on there (that are probably in other threads is
a) people on outside WEAR GLOVES - rope burn sucks
b) would strongly advise a second pass for the raft - don't want anyone after you, don't want to go out on top of tandems (rafts can end up all over the sky)
c) eliminate snag points on the raft, and everyone in the raft roll to the LEFT when it's time to get out.
it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality
