About myself


I got this boat as an almost absolute beginner, the only thing I could do was roll. I was also a little heavy for it, which helped me out a lot with learning moves on flatwater.

About the test environment


I'll mainly be referring to the boat's ability on flatwater, but I also tested it in some class III-IV whitewater, mostly breaking waves and fast holes.

Review


SLICEY! bomber plastic, very easy to use outfitting (I love the bulkhead), and incredibly easy to roll. Cartwheels and bow stalls like a dream due to the slicey, long ends, as well as stern squirts. The boat is pretty stable in whitewater as well, though I was too heavy to really do well with III+ water. Fantastic boat in a deep hole, and will surf waves well, though it doesn't carve incredibly fast. I can't imagine a better boat to learn in though.
