That's actually a really great idea that I may try to introduce to my local set of paddling buddies next time I see them. First because some situations can limit your line of sight as you mentioned, but it would also be an extremely valuable tool in any sort of rescue/setting safety situation where the roar of the water is too loud to hear anything over. Ive dealt with a few of those high noise situations where simple helmet taps would have solved absolutely every communication problem...

Great editing job on video.
Good to see that the man downstreams had a 2nd line ready and used it at the right time.
Good job guys! Instead of hand gestures (can be hard to see) we use helmet taps.

Sadly lacking in paddling skills for that river. I've seen it too many times.
It would've been so much easier to dump the boat get back in and paddle left instead of swimming left. But maybe he saw the fear?
Maybe he lost his paddle.
I dont get why the swim failed
