About the reviewer

Paddling for the last 13 years, kayak and river guide instructor. Freestyle and down river freestyle (freewheels and other down river fun) is how I like to get wet.

Test environment

Various play spots, mostly on the Vaal river. i have also been running various rivers in the boat from gr2-4 mostly medium volume

Review

The kayak is great in holes and breaking waves. Stable when vertical so cartwheels and the other hole moves happen with out to much effort. It carves well on waves, bounces like a "gomtor in die vuur" for good air. The kayak also has good volume in the front for wicked loops, and the other hole moves.
Handles well on the river and allows one to have maximum fun while heading down.

Conclusion

Good freestyle river runner and will not disappoint when playboatin.
