Weight Of Use
Good kayak for the beginner and intermediate paddler in rivers up to class IV. Fits kayakers from 70 to 85 kg.
Good
Easy to control. It keeps the line easly even on the side. Good lateral stability. Very stiff material.
Bad
The material is still very heavy and new (not long term tested). It feels a bit hard to turn comparing to the Recon 93 and the nose is a bit hard to lift. The shape of the sides is not suitable for the advanced kayaker that like to drive the boat with the sides. However beginners could like this feature because the boat result easy to drive.

Weight Of Use
Good kayak for all kayaker especially for shallow water. The kayaker can fit from 65 to 80Kg.
Good
Easy to control in shallow water. Good speed and the rounded hull makes this kayak quite easy to handle.
Bad
The outfitting is not very comfortable and require good manuality for setting it up. I haven't felt particular bed feeling using this boat. However the not aggressive design it's not giving to this boat any particular good feature as well.
