Paddler weight range

This boat cannot be considered a special boat but the beginner and the advanced kayaker can enjoy this kayak both in valume and steep creeks. The M version is good from 70 to 80 Kg.

Good

Easy kayak with a good bow shape. The high front rocker permit to easely boof waves and holes. This kayak keeps the line in a good way and it's not hard to correct if necessary.

Bad

Very soft plastic and the seat it's not very solid (I felt it moving sidewise). The hul is quite narrow and thus the kayak it's a bit unstable. The vertical side on the back makes some rotations harder

Paddler weight range

Good kayak for the intermediate and advanced paddler for big volume rivers. The kayaker must be maximum 75-80 Kg.

Good

Very easy to control on big water. Very nice the feeling when you land from a boof. Good stability

Bad

The construction is still a work in progress. The seat is quite high and it's not possible to low it down. The side rails can give problems on rocky rivers. The new version doesn't have an high nose for boofing
