Default White water tubing - paddle?
We are going to try to go white water tubing and I want to know if you use some sort of a paddle for this? We have our tubes but I'm not sure if we need something else?

We're now running Class V rapids with bogey boards...

What kind of "tubes" are you using? The inflatable "rafts" that get used usually have paddles like oars to guide around dangerous rocks, etc.

I wouldn't go over Class V rapids with one of those tubes meant to be towed behind a boat, and no paddles!
