There should be a method to your madness.

You know, there are a lot of wild methods for getting down the river, but this is one of the prettiest and most polite. If you’re looking for stability, it’s here. Speed? Absolutely. Forgiveness? No problem. Comfort? This boat’s cushy galore. In fact, the body area was designed for maximum ergonomics. And maximum performance. The flat spinning hull and release chines look sleek, but act even sleeker. The Method™ is for beginning to expert paddlers who are ready for full-throttle fun. So when the going gets weird ‘cause the wild got wet, this is the way. This is the style. This is the Method.

Good boat

This boat is ok but not the best I have paddled.

It is very stable and easy to roll and plays ok for a long boat and me being a light paddler.

I learned to roll in this boat and it took around 20 minutes of trying to get my first roll so it's good for begginers to learn in.

I have paddled it on a small wave and it spins really well.
When surfing in the sea it is very easy to catch waves and does not feel at all intimidated even when the nose goes under. Once on the wave it carves really well even though I've had not much experience in surfing.

Overall I would say that this is a very good boat for begginers and intermediates to learn in and has enough performance to keep most people happy.

It is quite small in the cockpit so isn't for large people but then Perception make bigger versions. The comfort was good when i bought it but i am now too big for it.

Conclusion


Good boat
