Good

Very balanced boat. The high nose allows good boof and the speed is impressive. Easy to drive.

Bad

The weight of the kayak is for sure the biggest problem. The rails also can be hard on rocky creeks.

Paddler weight range

Volume river. Beginner and intermediate paddlers. L version from 70 to 90 kg.

Good

Good stability and easy to direct where you like when is flat. It has a good boof and keep a lot of speed in landing because of the flat bottom. It doesn't drift much in curve and permit easy draw stroke. Good outfitting easy to regulate.

Bad

It is a slow boat and suffers on rocks because of the edges along all the boat lenght. You don't want to go really fast with this boat because becomes really hard to control.
