Good
The Phoenix is fast, spinning like a top, but when goes fast, it stabilizes and it is easy to drive it safely even in difficult water. The very high nose allows you to skip most of the waves without even boofing. The short tail allows you to jump without touching the rocks on the bottom, turn quickly and do not lose control in the waves. When it lands from the boof it accelerates and glide in a surprising way.
Bad
The tail rails are quite marked and sometimes they might be felt if you are missing the right inclination of the boat.

Weight Of Use
Good for steep rivers and medium volume. This model is good for intermediate and advanced paddlers who don't have stablity problems. The 80 gallons version is suitable for paddlers from 70 to 80 Kg. The 90 gallon is suitable from 75 to 90 Kg.
Good
The Stomper has the same amazing boofing skill of the Jefe. This boat helps a lot to put the nose over everything. It's a very fast and easy to maneuver.
Bad
The only big defect of this boat is the stablity. The Stomper doesn't really help you if you are loosing the balance. The secondary stability is very low.
