Leapfrog is a river leading method for getting a group down a white water river. In its simplistic form the leapfrog technique pairs paddlers up, with one paddler moving at a time, leapfrogging the other using eddies as they continue down the river.

With larger groups the group can be divided into several pairs of paddlers. The first pair sets off and after they have negotiated the first set of eddies the next pair sets-off.
