Nice all arounder

About myself Playboater/creeker Girlfriend is beginning About the test environment Rogue River, mellow Review I got this boat to serve as a learning tool for my girlfriend and a creeker for me.

The edges are a little trippy for her going through holes, and the boat recovers well. The edges are nice for boat control as she learns eddying out and ferrying.

It stalls on both ends well and pirouettes from a stall suprisingly easy. This will set up great in a hole for Mcnasties, and other more dynamic moves. The boat is sound as a downriver boat for sure. It is fairly fast for its length. I get big air on downriver moves like air wheels and wave splitwheels (I have an overthruster). Landings always feel comfortable. Have not had it on big waves or holes, and on small features it appears functional. This is the way with all...
