hello everyone i must say this is a nice forum and full of info...I am looking to buying my first white water boat i am looking for somthing that would be good for a beginer something to learn the basics on.

Im kina a small guy i would say im about 5'8 or 5'9 and about 130-135 pounds and have size 10.5 shoe.

so my question is to you what would be a good boat to start out on new or used i am open to either option.

I would appreicate a respnses asap as i probably plan on going looking at boats this weekend.

I also live in west virgina and it probably be used on the New River and other smaller rivers in the area the most.

look around company's websites. Liquid Logic, wavesport, Riot, Jackson, Pyranha, Dagger. They all usually have the weight and size. For a nice beginner i would recommend a river runner.
