The descent thus becomes a dance in which currents, both superficial and deeper, are physically perceived.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tHOW IT WORKS\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Hydrospeed<\/b> is a water sport that is practiced with the help of a river bob, called hydro.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The hydro has a catamaran-shaped hull, a front bulb, two lateral floats, spaces for housing the arms and pelvis and can be equipped with handles.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The activity consists of running through a stream of water by positioning yourself on your stomach with your arms inside the hydro, directing it through the movement of the arms and torso.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Before starting the hydrospeed activity, the instructor explains the basics of conducting and safety in the water.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Then, a test is done in calm waters, to gain confidence and put into practice what has just been explained in theory.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And now, after the last checks, let’s go!!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You can practice hydrospeed<\/strong> wherever there is a water course with sufficient flow. This condition tends to occur in spring, when streams and rivers bring melted snow from the glaciers.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
