good boat

About myself I have been paddling for a while now and am a 3* kayaker. I live in colerine. About the test environment The Whiterocks, Portrush, quite large surf. Review I have never capsized so many times in my life on a wave, this boat is quite unforgiving, it felt as if it was trying to snap me in two when I went under (but I enjoyed it). It is quite fast on waves and it turns like lightning, but it has a very low volume tail so be careful not to lean back when going over waves. It gives a little bit of a bounce at times and is very easy to roll. I dont think that it would be really a good boat for beginners, but for intermediate upwards it's soooooo much fun!!! Conclusion I really enjoyed it and as it is quite an old boat you could pick it up fairly cheap.

good fun boat

About myself my name is michael im from northern ireland and i own a dagger RPM About the test environment tested it in some small surf Review Great boat for young people weather u like to surf or just do some river stuff its great i mostly surf and handle quite well. very easy to roll and great for learning Conclusion the dagger rpm is a nice looking boat which does do a good job on the waves, but now sice ive had it for about 2 years and have done my 3* i would like to maybe get a smaller boat as that dagger rpm is not great at turning on waves
