LL CR125 review? 19 years 1 week ago #5488

Anyone had a chance to paddle a LL Crossriver? Any reviews would be welcome.

I've sat in one and found it very comfy, but haven't had the chance to paddle one yet.

Cheers

Yes

Picked mine up last Saturday then drove straight to the tryweryn a dam released run in NOrth Wales. It is a very comfortable boat the cone of comfort does work really well my feet were happy all day. Down rapids it paddles well boofs easily, rock splats were fun/ Playing wise it works really well on waves infact i say it is a bit faster than my old 7O (girlfriend nicked it!) The hull is super loose loves to spin blunt etc


flat water as theres loads more volume its harder to do stuff but it does cartwheel quite smoothly but requires muscle and good technique. but waves and holes it works really well

dude get one you wont be diaspointed

I will be back up there this coming sunday hopefully there will be a release

Hey Urge,

What's your weight & height? Have you compared the CR125 to any similar boats?

Thaks,
Barc

yes I have paddled the juice and didnt like it not much foot room and more of a playboat than river runner think along the lines of the ego/id, Paddled a sevenO s/m which my girlfriend has pinched off me and settled on the CR 125

im around 5ft7 30" inseam and around 76kgs size 9uk feet, Personally i loved the 7O and this boat paddled just as well down river if not better, on the cafe wave it spun and blunted with ease and was quite quick aswell as the hull is majoritly flat with just kicked up ends this worked well for me and in a few weeks will be taking it to Austria and Italy for some big volime fun

I did a head to head demo with the EZG 50 this morning at a play spot. Both seem like good boats. But the CR125 won in terms of comfort - no comparison, so I put my $$ down.

I am 170 lbs, 5'8", US size 10 feet.
