The hull design behind this kayak is our latest rendition of Hydro-Glide.
A little shorter than the Trickster to make vertical moves easier, narrower hull to get it on edge easier, and more side bevel like the Disco for extra forgiveness. Dominatrix has a similar concept in deck design to the Trickster, but with much less volume in the ends than any Riot boat ever. In fact, this is the easiest kayak longer than 7 feet to flatwater cartwheel, and it'll link up those ends in the smallest, softest holes imaginable. Dominatrix is intended to be the link between the Riot Disco and the Riot Trickster in its style of paddling. Extremely forgiving, controllable and fun on the smallest river features like the Disco, yet retaining some of the speed, carving precision, agility and grace of the Trickster series. Extra volume in the knee area for super retentiveness, and relatively comfortable foot area so paddlers can sit in it all day. Balanced volume in the stern for controlled linked vertical ends, shorter for easy spins and shallow hole playing. Slip System hull for fast surfing, blinding spins and extra forgiveness. This is the dream boat for girls and guys that will bring out the hidden qualities you never knew you had.
Bottom Line? While the Disco will remain the ultimate spud boat for 2001, and the Trickster/Prankster the best river running high performance play boats out, the Dominatrix series will nicely fill that gap of the perfect play-specific kayak. With this final touch to the Riot 2001 line of kayaks, we bring to the whitewater kayak industry the most complete, new line-up in the world. Now there's a Riot kayak for every one.

About the reviewer
I am playboater who playboats on flatwater. i paddle a riot dominatrix 47 but am looking for somethign mroe advanced.Test environment
FlatwaterReview
The riot dominatrix is a good boat for people who are learning to playboat. This was my first boat and i still have it. It is easy to roll and becuase its ends are slicy it is easy to cartwheel. I dont find it the esiest to work the double pump but it can be done. It is abit tight for me and i cant paddle with shoes on becuase it is abit small. But other than that a good all round boat.Conclusion
Isnt the comfiest but a great all round boat and alot of fun can be had in it.Review
