About the reviewer

When I paddled this boat I was a brand new paddler still working on basic skills such as rolling, eddy catching, and many other basic skills.

Test environment

Nantahala River, Lake, small surf spots

Review

This was a pretty good learning boat for rolling and basic class 2 river running. Since it is a creek boat it obviously did not excel in surfing and other activities that require a bit more of a hull design. But overall a pretty good beginner boat.

Conclusion

It did the job it was purchased to do.
