Inflatable Kayaks The name Duckies was originally termed to explain how ducks learn to swim by following their mother ducky down the river. The theory is that by observation one can take the best lines without having to be an expert. Try the middle section of the Roaring Fork in an inflatable kayak which is very stable and easy to master. It is a perfect introduction to kayaking and whitewater excursions.
