Vision 56

I've had this boat for 4 months and absolutly love it. Found it to be one of the most comfy play boats ive ever sat in. Liquid Logic have made a fantastic boat. As an aspiring playboater I know jack all about the moves it can do but have seen it in the hands of a mate and looked good. Not a great surfing boat but on a river wave this boat comes into its own. Only concern with it is how good the plastic is- whether a poor plastic has been used to keep weight down. The seat mechanism is superb, really easy to adjust, just taking seconds literally. The boat is a gift to paddle, feeling a lot longer than it actually is, handy when paddling between playspots. Pitty about the stupid foot cushion, solid foot blocks would be a lot less hassle and they wouldn't burst.

I feel the main factors that take away from a brilliant boat is the dopey foot system and maybe slighlty soft plastic. Otherwise the outfitting is first class with the number of parts kept to an absolute mininum.

I would most definitely recomend this boat to the larger paddler, bags of room for legs and feet. My size 13s may just be a sqeeze but anything less than that should have tons of room.
