Good
Very balanced boat. The high nose allows good boof and the speed is impressive. Easy to drive.
Bad
The weight of the kayak is for sure the biggest problem. The rails also can be hard on rocky creeks.

Weight Of Use
Good for steep rivers and medium volume. This model is good for intermediate and advanced paddlers who don't have stablity problems. The 80 gallons version is suitable for paddlers from 70 to 80 Kg. The 90 gallon is suitable from 75 to 90 Kg.
Good
The Stomper has the same amazing boofing skill of the Jefe. This boat helps a lot to put the nose over everything. It's a very fast and easy to maneuver.
Bad
The only big defect of this boat is the stablity. The Stomper doesn't really help you if you are loosing the balance. The secondary stability is very low.
