The activity will start out with some quick instructions that will allow you to work with all members aboard the raft so that you can all conquer the exhilarating water rapids.
Barracuda is filled with drops, water splashers, obstacles and currents that will test your coordination and balance abilities, and it will also require you to overcome the challenge along with your team members without flipping over and trying to keep everyone on board.
