most of the Splash wet is waist down, coming over the side of the log, I have never been soaked above the waist on Splash, on the other hand, GRR, a total soaker. So you could use ponchoes wrapped around your legs and waist and take the great suggestions about shoes. and don't foreget a towel to sit on while in the log. feet 90% chance wet, below knees, 50%, 30% waist and below. 9 out of 10 will have water on their shoes, 5 out of 10 will have wet calves, 3 out of 10 will have thighs wet. just my numbers, maybe they could be adjusted with other experinces on splash
