Hello everybody,
First of all sorry because my English is quite rusty and probably I will write more errors than I would like.

I need your advice to buy a new kayak. I am 6’ (183 cm), 181 lbs (82 kg), size 11 foot and 33” (84 cm) inseam. I have been using the last two years a prijon wizard, the most of time surfing in the sea (north of Spain) and a few rivers in the Pyrenees (III, -IV). I have passed a lot of good moments with it but what I want now is to learn and practice all the different freestyle moves even in flat water and I am not be able to do that with the wizard.
I have been looking JK All Star 2010, Pyranha Molan M, Dagger Agent 6.2, Wavesport Project 52 and Big Dog Kaos M, (this brands are available here), are they good to learn cartwheels, bow and stern stall, loops, etc even in flat water? maybe other kayaks??

Thanks for your attention

I previous paddled a Project and I found the Nemesis easier to control when setting up and doing moves on flat water and on a wave.

I will have to give a chance to the Nemesis M, it has a bit more volume than Project 52 which suits better for me. Thanks again.
