Weight Of Use
Advanced paddler can appreciate her in big volume rivers even more that an Habitat. Beginner and intermediate paddler can have fun and learn really easely the kayaking bases. 80 gallons version from 75 to 90 kg. 70 gallons version from 60 to 75. 60 gallons version up to 60 kg.
Good
Good stability and easy to direct where you like. It can move in the river like a slalom boat and the control is superb. Really good for river running and play. The new version made the boat softer in the lines and faster in linear speed. Easy to control at maximum speed. Good outfitting easy to regulate
Bad
Not much to say, the tail can sink if the paddler is heavy and it's not really good for steep hard creeking.

Weight Of Use
Could be indicated for heavy beginners and intermediate kayakers. This model can be used for paddlers over 85kg.
Good
Very big boat with a great lateral stability. The heavy kayaker could appreciate the forgivness due to the big volume.
Bad
The tail is massive and hard to move and control. The boof results quite hard because of the flatness of the back rocker. The high lateral stability makes the Director very hard to control using the hips. The kayak can be hard to drive trough big waves from medium size paddlers.
