Ivan
Our safety rookie! At only 17, Ivan is already a super canoeist with experience on rivers in Italy, France and Slovenia. An expert biscuit devourer, it can be said that the great passion he has for the river is nothing like his passion for school, but that's another story. :P
Faith
Still young, but already a world-class canoeist. He has explored most of the rivers in South and Central America. His passion for the river doesn't end in the rapids: in the evenings you can find him on the banks with a fishing rod to fill the grill!
Racket
His name is actually Daniel, but no one seems to remember him. Racket comes from Patagonia where he learnt on one of the most powerful rivers - the Futaleufu. His passion is white water kayaking - the harder the better! Even after a long day at work, he will look for a companion to come back and play with his kayak in the big rapids.
Ricky
Always the quick wit, in the front line to party in good company, he gets surprisingly serious (or almost!) when he puts on his life jacket and helmet.
12 years ago, he took part in a River Rescue course organised by Totem and from there became part of the tribe. An excellent guide, he follows the seasons around rivers in Patagonia, Nepal and Italy.
Nice lines Ricki!
Marc
Hyperactive like few others, Marc comes from the Pyrenees and is now ready for an exciting new adventure on the Dora Baltea. He alternates his descents seasonally between Patagonia, the Pyrenees, the Alps and the Himalayas. Always with a smile on his face, great on the river but not only... a magician, circus performer: he sings and charms women, as well as madly loving vegetables :)
Advanced river rescue technician for Rescue 3 and Class V guide for the Italian Rafting Federation.
Miguel
Not only an experienced mountaineer in the Pyrenees and the Alps, but also an incredible river guide! He has guided on rivers from Patagonia to the Grand Canyon to the Himalayas. Despite his big muscles, he is the most tender, humble and caring person... and the girls all fall in love! This year he has the daunting task of coordinating all the hotheads of the Totem Adventure Tribe!
International Rescue 3 River Rescue Instructor and Rafting Instructor for the Italian Rafting Federation (guide trainer).
David
The backpacking leader is always on the move. If he does not teach the rules of river play, he is either exploring a new river in a remote country or you find him hanging from a paraglider in search of his next adventure.
Trainer of Rescue 3 river rescue instructors and National Guide Training Manager for the Italian Rafting Federation and the World Rafting Federation.
