Nice boat for low volume creeks

About myself


16 years of paddling (slalom, creeking, playboating, downriver racing)

About the test environment


Norway and Vale Sesia area

Review


The Huka is a great boat for the lower volume creeking. It boofs like a dream, and turns great. The plastic is very durable (but does make it a heavy boat), it has taken quite some beatings and still looks ok.

However stay well away from big volume water! This boat doesn't track and can't hold line... I got stuck in a (big) hole with this boat and it took ages (and a good trashing :-)) to get out of it..

Conclusion


If you're looking for a creek boat for lower volume (steep) rivers, this is a great boat! But use it for what it's made for!
