Per the other comments, no offense, but the reviewers seem a bit "green". This boat is very easy to roll and does not get "stuck" in holes any more than any other boat. If you punch a hole and stop paddling, the hole will draw you back in. A PRO about being in a hole in this boat, is that because of the chines, you can surf it easily. Work on your side-surf techniche and your comfort level in holes and you won't have any problems with working any boat in a hole. The boat stays on line and tracks like a damn blood hound. It boofs well and resurfaces immediately after big drops. After owning 5 different boats, as for creeking and big water, I'm not planning on looking any further than another Burn.
