Sometimes looking at the streams makes you want to dive into the water and be carried away by the current downstream. So why not really do it? The hydrospeed gives you all the tools to have a safe and at the same time electrifying experience, it's just you, the board and the water!
1. Simple and effective activity
This sport is winning precisely because of the idea behind it, as simple as it is brilliant. You do not need who knows what equipment to practice it but the emotions it leaves are incomparable. Certainly, in addition to the board, the wetsuit is also fundamental, so as not to suffer too much in the icy waters of the rivers, the helmet, for safety, and the fins, which will allow you to make your movements more precise.
2. An original idea
As we said above, it is a simple but extremely effective idea. We are not used to seeing people in the water accompanied by a simple board; usually the streams are always populated by rubber boats. Canoes, kayaks, this idea is undoubtedly fresh and original.
3. Feel the contact with nature
Certainly with this activity, contact with nature is very direct. You will not be separated from the water by boats. Instead, you will find yourself immersed in the currents that will toss you left and right. The perspective is very different in spite of other sports of this kind, even if you follow a known itinerary the vision of the landscape and of what surrounds you will be totally different.
4. You only need to know how to swim
If you feel comfortable in the water and you like adventure you will certainly have no problem spending a day of hyrdospeed with your friends! No particular physical characteristics or special training are required, you just have to give yourself a great desire to have fun and live an adrenaline-pumping experience.
5. Security
Surely it is a sport that brings great emotions to life but this does not mean that you have to be blocked by the fear of trying. You will always be followed by professionals who will make sure to entertain you but in extreme safety. You will be equipped with everything you need to be able to live the experience with serenity. Before starting you will always be explained how to use the equipment, how to behave in case of difficulty and how to manage the board and the water. If you are trying this sport for the first time, you will surely start with simpler routes in which the currents will be less strong and where you can learn the best techniques to use. For those who are more experienced and already know the sport, there are more complex route options that will allow you to test your skills.

Hydrospeed, like all river sports, is very sensitive to the seasons, particularly to the winter one which often causes the torrents to freeze. Without a doubt, the best season to practice it is spring when, thanks to the thawing of the waters, the currents are stronger. Even in summer and autumn it is possible to participate in hydrospeed activities, when the water temperature is certainly more enjoyable. All you have to do is find the center closest to you and live your adventure.
