Small and Fast

About the reviewer

This is my first playboat and I consider myself a novice and self taught. I learned to roll on first attempt and have learned by the use of the internet! I find friends to go with and now try and teach new interests the basics.

Test environment

Class 2 River at about 2,500CFS

Review

The boat is fast and holds well in surf. Very easy to roll and hence very easy to get flipped. Great outfitting but a little short for my legs. Still working on finding comfort in this little thing. I had to take out the thigh braces to fit my legs in. I bought the boat used for a killer deal which is why I don't fit quite perfectly but this boat gets the job done! One day I was surfing on the Sky river and Eli (Former Team Riot) came down the river and tried my boat out. He told me he's considering getting one for himself...

Conclusion

I'm not experienced enough to give a great review. I am a class 2 boater and am moving up to class 3 this week. I do recommend this boat and can say it has definitely not let me down in any way. Happy Boating!
