overall, it's an old boat for sure - but if you're looking for a cheap one that you can learn in, this is a great choice. It was for me!

About Me
I am 6'1" and 160 lbs, this was my first kayak. This boat is pretty much barely big enough for me, but it was still comfortable enough (much more than the cramped playboats) for me. For someone my size, i would recommend looking for something bigger if you could, however.
Pros / The Good
easy to roll, very fast and easy to accelerate. if the wave or hole is big enough you can catch it to surf some, but it's too long for most anything else.
Cons / The Bad
the front of the boat is angled down and is therefore submerged very often. Even more so when you lean forward, which you need to do to keep the low-volume stern from getting played with by the current.
