The Phoenix is fast, spinning like a top, but when goes fast, it stabilizes and it is easy to drive it safely even in difficult water. The very high nose allows you to skip most of the waves without even boofing. The short tail allows you to jump without touching the rocks on the bottom, turn quickly and do not lose control in the waves. When it lands from the boof it accelerates and glide in a surprising way. Bad
The tail rails are quite marked and sometimes they might be felt if you are missing the right inclination of the boat.

The length of the kayak (9ft) could be a problem in very small and technical rivers.
Weight Of Use
Version M 75 -90 kg Good
Easy boat for hard and easy rivers. Very good lateral stability in every situation. Easy to boof and control at medium-low speed. Bad
The speed is the biggest problem of this boat. It is slow and if it get speed, it's hard to keep it straight. In big volumes the huge volume in the nose could be hard to control.
Weight Of Use
Size L from 70 to 80kg - Size S from 50 to 65kg Good
Very fast kayak and quick to turn. Easy to boof and maneuver quickly. Bad
The only flaw I found is the low lateral stability due to the very narrow width. Occasionally I had feelings of loss of control at high speeds.

It's a bit hard to get back in line. Rise the nose it's not an easy task since the tail is quite long. It's not very stable since is quite narrow.

The super high rocker helps to go over waves and boof very easy. Bad
I have found little issues in the direction control due to the vertical side walls. In rocky rivers could, the edges could give some problems.

This boat is fast and easy to drive mainly in easy water. Bad
The biggest problem is the low nose profile that makes the boof quite hard.
Weight Of Use

This model is really easy to drive especially at low speed. The tail rocker is very high and therefore the boof is really easy. In the wave trains this model can really follow the waves very quickly Bad
At high speed the control of the boat is a bit harder. However is easy to recover. The boat seems to be not very solid and the outfitting is not the best.

This model is a fast boat developed for creeking. The rocker are pretty high but the speed of the boat is good. Bad
The only problem is that the boat keep weird lines as soon you loose a bit the control. The long tail sometimes touch the rock while boofing.
Weight Of Use
Good kayak for the intermediate and advanced paddler for big volume rivers. The kayaker must be maximum 75-80 Kg. Good
Very easy to control on big water. Very nice the feeling when you land from a boof. Good stability Bad
The construction is still a work in progress. The seat is quite high and it's not possible to low it down. The side rails can give problems on rocky rivers. The new version doesn't have an high nose for boofing
Weight Of Use
The Trex is optimal from 70 to 85kg. Good
For sure a very good boat, easy to control and very fast on flat water and on boof landing. It makes easy to not loose speed on whitewater and turbulent zones. Bad
The only small problem of this boat is a lack of support in the tail area in certain situations. Sometimes the long tail can touch the bottom in case of boof.

The mamba is an easy boat to start with. It's indicated for river under class IV. It could be considered a easy boat to start with since it's stable and quite easy to direct. Bad
The low profile nose, associated with the general low volume, do not permit hard creeking and doesn't help in difficult water. The hull is slow but stable and easy to direct. The design is quite old and there are more performing boat on market now.

This boat can be driven like a slalom boat. you can sink the tail and use the opposite edge to curve. Bad
The low rocker profile in the nose require a lot of work to keep it out of the water.
