About from company website

Rapid Water Courses specialises in the design and construction of whitewater channels for paddlesports and swiftwater rescue training. The company's core innovation lies in the RapidBlocs whitewater obstacle system, which enables the creation of cost-effective, pre-cast concrete channels. This system allows for the mass production of repeatable whitewater channel components, manufactured in a factory environment to ensure quality control and economic efficiency.

The construction process involves on-site excavation and forming of the channel, followed by the installation of pre-cast concrete units. Walls are formed using integrated reinforcement, and concrete is poured into shutters. The RapidBlocs themselves are roto-moulded and assembled off-site before being installed.

This modular approach allows for a construction timeline of approximately 10 weeks for 100m of channel. Pump stations and electrical equipment are installed concurrently with the channel construction, ensuring a swift completion ready for operation.
