List your weight.. Choosing a boat has more to do with weight than anything..

Playboats to look at:

Liquid Logic Biscuit
Bliss Stick RAD, Smoothy (and there is another I can't remember the name)
Dagger Agent
Drago Rossi Fish
Wavesport Project
And of course.. Jackson Kayak Star Series.

If you want more opinions or help narrowing down, list your paddle type:
Do you like to surf? or hole play?
Do you want something that is edgy and fast? or something Predictable and smooth?
Do you want to be running rivers as well in this boat? or is it strictly for playing?

Biased Kiwi here...

Rad 175
or secondhand Pyranha S6 (f) or (x) which is sweet in surf - you would want the small sizes

good luck!

Pretty much forgot about this website for ages. I've come along way since I posted that original post! Running a dagger kingpin now. Really appreciated all the advice, thank you!
