I would like to know what you think about these boats
Hello Everyone,
This is my first time being on this site, and I am super stoked that I was told about it.
I know that some boats make better c1 conversions then others. Out of the 2003 line-up, could some experienced C1er rank the boat's using a number scale from 1 to 10, 1 being the best, 10 being the worst, under the following headings:
Big Wave Aerial Huckage:
Big Hole Maneuverability:
Comfort:
Thanks Garett

Here's my stat's
Sorry, here they are,
Weight: 160lbs
Height: 6' 2''
Foot size: size 10
Waist: 34''
I've been kayaking on the Ottawa River for 7 years and my main interest is surfing huge waves and getting trashed in huge holes.
Example: Surfing Kahuna, Bus Eater, and getting trashed in Phil's hole and third wave at Colesiem.
Hope this helps

hugh waves and holes
Garrett,
I'm in a higher weight range than you (200+) and I'm not particularly fond of hugh anything pertaining to water ,class 4 is my limit so I will be of limited help. Probably my only suggestion for you would be a WS BigEZ. I love my Super EZ and find it very stable, easy to roll, roomy and handles class 3-4 water well. Hopefully someone else with your interests and or weight range can help. Good luck.

I am at 150 and I LOVE my new Vibe... it goes huge on a wave, and is great in a hole. I hit my first loop ever on my 3rd day in it and it was a big-un.
here's my inital reactions to the boat

I am loving my space cadet, I`m 175lbs. Learning to get air on big waves, super fun and pretty forgiving. Tumbles when carwheeling, but whatever. Super super fun spud boat. Also have heard good reviews of the Dagger kingpin
Comfort I wouldn`t worry about between the various boats, only Riot has a smaller cockpit these days (I think necky went bigger this year), which can be painful with big fat legs.
You might want to try the pocket rocket, but I find flatwater and river running fine in the space cadet, for a 6 foot long C1 anyways...
