1. Entanglement<\/h3>\n

When anything that can’t travel downstream binds around your body, it’s called entanglement. Ankle leashes hooked on rocks or ropes are examples.<\/p>\n

2. Pinning<\/h3>\n

When you’re caught between anything upstream and a static object downstream, it’s called pinning. Your board anchoring you to a rock or bridge piling upstream is an example.<\/p>\n

Entrapment of the Leg and Foot<\/p>\n

Entrapment occurs when a body component becomes entangled in the river’s rocks or other debris.<\/p>\n

3. Strainers<\/h3>\n

Everything in the river that permits water to pass across but not you is a strainer. Tree limbs and wood jams are two examples.<\/p>\n

4. Impact<\/h3>\n

If you plunge deep after leaving a wave, you risk breaking bones or damaging your gear if you reach the ground strongly<\/p>\n

The impact of boards on the head might result in bruises or concussions. Large cuts can be caused by fins hitting the head.<\/p>\n

5. Exposure<\/h3>\n

When the body started to deteriorate as a result of temperature and climate, this is known as exposure. The river can swiftly drop your core body temperature, and it can take a long time to raise it again.<\/p>\n

6. Debris<\/h3>\n

Waves can carry trees, branches, and other debris, which might be difficult to notice. It’s riskier when the river water is muddy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
