N8TV Adventures - Located in Warm Springs, Oregon, just outside of the rapidly growing area of Bend, N8TV Adventures is now offering guided riverboarding trips on the Deschutes River!
The Deschutes has long been one of the most popular whitewater destinations in the Northwest, and these guided trips are perfect for people who want to experience riverboarding at beginner to intermediate level whitewater.

Cascade Raft & Kayak - Cascade has been offering rafting and kayaking trips for years, but in 2007 they began offering "hydrospeed" trips, guided riverboarding trips on the incredible Payette River north of Boise, Idaho. This is a great company and a great trip as riverboarders can go along with their families who are rafting! |

ASPEN SEALS - Transplanted to the heart of the Rockies in Colorado all the way from New Zealand, this sledge company has experience with some of the best whitewater in NZ and bring their knowledge to Colorado rivers! Aspen Seals is currently the only company certified with the State of Colorado to run commercial trips. They use sledges similar to the Ripboard. |

Beyond Limits - Located on one of the most popular stretches of whitewater in the US, the South Fork American, Beyond Limits offers riverboarding trips and instruction from the creator of modern riverboarding himself, Bob Carlson. They of course use Carlson Riverboards and spend a lot of time surfing the great holes on the S. Fork. |

MONTANA RIVER GUIDES - Located in beautiful Missoula, Montana, this rafting company has been running riverboard trips for several years now with great success. They offer world-class guides on a great stretch of Class III on the Clark Fork river, and they use Carlson riverboards. Costs run $85 - $105 per person for a day trip. I've run that stretch of whitewater a few times and can say it's worth doing! You'll see Eagles, Osprey, and maybe even Black Bears, as well as a ton of great whitewater. |

RAINBOW RIDERS - A Canadian rafting company located in Alberta, they have been offering trips for the past couple of years. You can obtain more info about the trips by contacting the company directly. They use the Morey Riverboard which is no longer in production. |

RIPBOARD - Not technically a guide company, Ripboard has been featured prominently is many publications over the past couple of years for their unique sledge style riverboard. They offer board and gear rentals on Clear Creek in Golden, Colorado, and can also be found offering board demos at most of the whitewater festivals throughout the year. |
