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

Good

The mamba is an easy boat to start with. It's indicated for river under class IV. It could be considered a easy boat to start with since it's stable and quite easy to direct.

Bad

The low profile nose, associated with the general low volume, do not permit hard creeking and doesn't help in difficult water. The hull is slow but stable and easy to direct. The design is quite old and there are more performing boat on market now.
