The AMP.

A cubically liberated freestyle machine from Perception’s artists in R&D. Tap into the direct currents of the river with this design and flip up your paddling potential. The AMP™ (Another Move Perfected) lubricates the boundaries of looseness while providing the speed necessary for "electric" moves. This piece of art was sculpted with scalloped gills in the hull to crumble surface tension. And a smooth volume transition allows you to amplify your levels of verticality. Clean cartwheels, vertical blunts and bounding spins lie in wait! And with its ergonomic cockpit, you can pull them off in comfort and style. Plus, for its short length, it’s an incredible river-runner, too. So plug into the AMP. The power is on.

Good play boat- uncomfortable

About the reviewer

I have size 9 (43) feet but this boat is the water going equivalent of the Lotus Elise, amazing performance but a pain to use in the long term

Test environment

I have paddled this boat on a many rivers nothing above grade 3(+)

Review

I really good hull design surfs very well, handles very well in stoppers, easy to roll. Not an easy boat to get in or exit.

Conclusion

I had sold the boat because it was so uncomfortable. I have now brought it back an converted it into a C1 - I like it, quite a lot! ( wife not too happy)
