May 29th – June 1st, 2014 – The winner will go to Brazil.

Last March, the Dominical Adventures team represented the South Pacific in the National Rafting and Kayaking Competition, taking place at the Naranjo River, becoming the winner of the contest. “It was an event designed for experts due to the many rapids and steep falls the river has,” Henry Aguilera, Dominical Surf Adventures’ owner, pointed out. David Orozco, Andy Mc Carthy, Jeudy Méndez, and Anthony Sandoval participated in that competition.

“This victory encouraged us to participate in the upcoming Teva Rafting Cup 2014 from May 29th to June 1st at the lower side of the Naranjo River,” Henry added. The event is organized by ‘Asociación de Aguas Rápidas y Aventura Quepos’ (Quepos Fast Water and Adventure Association). This is a R4 type competition.
