A good first boat

About the reviewer This was my first ever boat witch i used for about 4 or 5 mouths befor i movesd on to a perception blaze 6.9 Test environment i only ever used it on flat water and small surf Review Its a first great boat i learnt all the basics and even how to roll in the very limeted time i had in it. It was great on flat water stable fast and moveable. Then i took it on a quite good size surf now it may of just been my limited experience but i found the boat nose dipping and after the nose dip I found I was being trashed. The only other thing i found was it is not the most comfortable boat as it had a Rapid+ outfitting witch is not the best outfitting in the world and once you have sat in a wavesport you never want to go back but if its your first boat as it was mine then you know no different. Conclusion A great first boat for beginners for just getting into the sport and well worth is as their is no point getting something to...

A great boat in the surf

About the reviewer when i was paddling the boat i had not been kayaking for a year but looking back on it now i can see what a great boat it was for me when i started surfing Test environment Big seas down boscombe beach last winter Review This was the second boat i ever owned and when i got it i had only ever been kayak surfing about once. I found that how ever big the wave i was surfing the boat just would not nose dip. Witch is why i think it is a great boat for people who are kust starting out into the surf who cant be botherd to master a surf kayak. I found that after a while i could trust the boat with all most any wave as past experiences in my first ever boat a pyranha inazone saw me doing somersaults after nose dip on big waves. The only thing with it is the weight limit 75KG but theres the 7.1 for that Conclusion A great boat for just setting out into the surf
