Wildwater or downriver racing is type of kayaking which is an exciting variant of whitewater paddling. Wildwater kayaks, at around 4.5m (14.5') in length, are longer than whitewater playboats or even creek boats. They are designed for speed on whitewater and the races take place on courses that are roughly 8km (five miles) in length with class III and class IV rapids.
