Extremely easy to paddle, the Disco's performance closes the gap between intermediate and expert.

The Disco features no-trip edges and Riot's Slip System, which reduces drag by forcing water to separate from the hull before it reaches the kayak's edges. Meaty bow and stern volume along with its short length let you nail cartwheels and stomp aerial moves in holes or waves. Fins can be added at the stern to increase carving performance without inhibiting spinning capabilities.

old school genius

I have been paddling this boat now for about 3/4 years and although I am way over weight for this boat (185 kg), have run nearly every river in ireland in it in all levels as i can't afford a creek boat, this being due to its unbelieveable stability.

For playboating I have managed to attempt to keep up with the good guys in this old skool heavy plastic playboat and had a savage time doing it.

This is one of the all time classics and it will be a sad day the day I part with it.

Geologist

Love the Disco....plays very well. However, I have the lightweight version and I cracked it in 3 spots. Totally useless now but got 3.5 years out of it.
