Does anyone know the paddlers weight range for the eskimo salto? My weight is 56 kg, will this be to light for the boat? Is it a good boat to choose all in all?... and if you want to start creeking? I have been paddling (riverrunning, playboating) whitewater for two seasons? Thanks for all answers and info.. :)

56 kg might be a bit light for the Salto, and I'm pretty sure too light for the Jefe. Best to demo as many boats as you can. Try your friends boats, see what feels right to you.

A small Fluid Solo might work for you.. :)

A Dagger Mamba 7.5 would fit you well. :cheer:

From what I've been told, 56kg is a good weight for the salto. Other good boats to look at are the jefe chico and JK punk rocker.
