C-Forum

Please help me out. I am looking at the Space cadet because I like the bigger cockpit, but I have been out of the loop for awhile and would like a boat to come back into. I am 5.5'" and 170 pounds. What is a good choice, from below list of availability? Something with faster hull speed would be nice. I paddled the T1 and it was slowwwww. Thanks for your input.

such different boats among the list... What are you looking for exactly? Creeker river runner riverplay or full playboat? You like'em slicy or more modern design?

Between a remix 79 and an agent there is quite a bit of difference in design I must say Both good choice though...

since you mentioned a faster hull speed would be nice, then I'll say the remix is the one you want. Definately.
No doubt about it

Thanks guys. And sorry about that, I am looking for a playboat.

Hey Nam: If you decide that you want a Chronic I have one for sale.

I'm in the neighbourhood as well (North Van)

Cheers,

Don

Thanks Don. Not sure about the Chronic now.

I am leaning towards the project 52. Anyone has an opinion?

thanks

I'd go with the Jackson Super or 4 Fun. I've herd great things about them. I just picked up a 4Fun last week and am outfitting it this week. Can't wait to get it out.

Thanks C guru. I am leaning to the 4fun, dagger agent or and the allstar, but allstar is hard to find.

I'm 5'10" 175 paddling an Agent 6.2. It has been my first C1 so the learning curve has been steep but I'm happy with it. It plays really well. Sometimes it plays so well I feel like I'm trying to keep up.

I'd be getting a project 52

Of the other boats in your list:

• I'd Consider:
  • Project 52
  • Necky Chronic
  • Liquid Logic Space Cadet
• Too Small:
  • Jackson Fun 1 Complete set (Is a child size boat)
  • Liquid logic- Vision 44 (*might* be ok, you'd need to try it)
• Godawful playboats:
  • pyranha rev
  • Dagger agent 6.2 (Niall from the Irish freestyle team, got one, liked it to start with and last time we spoke had come to hate it with a vengance)
  • project 62 (hilariously awful inspite of the 45 and 52 being good boats; also too big)
• Too Big:
  • Jackson 4fun
  • Jackson SuperFun (at 5'5" you could probably climb inside and take a nap in this bad boy)
• Wrong type of boat:
  • Liquid Logic Remix-79 C-1
  • Jackson superhero

I've got a space cadet that is lots of fun.
For what it is worth, I know someone who said the allstar isn't always easy to outfit because the plastic flexes so much that you can loosen up in it.

Of his best 3, the Chronic has the fastest hull. great wave boat, forgiving edges, throw's ends easily, but does not loop well. If loop-based moves are what you want to do, go with the other 2--Also, if you are much over 160, the chronic will turn "squirter" on you -- I know from experience.

Thanks guys.

according to this chart, the dagger agent is aswesome. But it is only a chart.
