In the second episode of our A Beginner's Guide to Packrafting Podcast (& occasional KZfaq video) Series, Tony Miely talks whitewater packrafting gear. While he doesn't review the full spectrum of boats, paddles and helmets available (that would take hours!), he offers an overview of the gear people need to get started with whitewater boating. And he makes a few solid, high-quality brand suggestions. Tony is one of the long-time owners of 4Corners Riversports, the premier boating store in SW Colorado. He is also an accomplished Class V kayaker and all-around nice guy!
