RAPID_CLASS
Concept definition:
Class VI: Extreme and Exploratory. These runs have almost never been attempted and often exemplify the extremes of difficulty, unpredictability and danger. The consequences of errors are very severe and rescue may be impossible. For teams of experts only, at favourable water levels, after close personal inspection and taking all precautions. After a Class VI <
RAPID
>s has been run many times, its rating may be changed to an appropriate Class 5.x rating.
