An alternative River Grading System

I've had a hankering to do some white water paddling as cross training for sea paddling for a while now. Here on the Central Coast there isn't a great deal of close and convenient white water, surf is alot easier to get to, but I keep thinking about going down to the Penrith white water stadium to play or even over to UNZUD, AKA The Land of the Long White Rivers where some excellent courses are available on real rivers.

Not really being au fait with the terminology, I've been checking out grading systems on the UK Rivers Guide Book site, where I  found Dave Petterson's alternative river grading system...........................written from a swimmer's perspective.

If you haven't seen it before then do check it out, you'll like it.
