Weight Of Use
Best in steep creek, but good performance in hard volume too. This boat is indicated from class 4 to 6 for intermediate and advance paddlers. The 80 gallon version is good from 75 to 100 Kg and the 74 version from 65 to 80 Kg. The smaller version has the same features but more manoeuvrability.
Good
The round hull allow an easy conduction on very rocky creeks
Bad
On water is hard to control. The round hull makes the kayak very nervous.
