Weight Of Use
Good kayak for the beginner and intermediate paddler in rivers up to class IV. Fits kayakers from 70 to 85 kg.
Good
Easy to control. It keeps the line easly even on the side. Good lateral stability. Very stiff material.
Bad
The material is still very heavy and new (not long term tested). It feels a bit hard to turn comparing to the Recon 93 and the nose is a bit hard to lift. The shape of the sides is not suitable for the advanced kayaker that like to drive the boat with the sides. However beginners could like this feature because the boat result easy to drive.
