The Dagger G-Force 5.9 for larger but thin paddlers

About myself I'm a eighteen-year-old paddler from Germany and own a Dagger G-Force 5.9 in a red-black. About the test environment I've tested my boat on many rivers all over the west of Europe: Germany, Austria, France, Spain, Luxembourg. I paddled in whitewater, on flatwater-rivers and played at a few playspots. Review It's a very small boat so you're not so fast on any sort of rivers. Because of its low volume, it is easy to learn moves like cartwheels etc. I paddle this boat on WW 3-4 (Europe) but this is the highest grade to kayak, because on harder WW I think it has too little volume and it feels like a submarine ;-) Conclusion I think it is a good boat for people who only want do run easy whitewater or play on playspots, but not for creeking or bigger WW.
