Beautiful run. What run is this on AW? I'd love to travel up that way someday. There are a few Canyon Creek runs showing on AW and I'm hope to know where this run is.

I've been thinking of getting a large for this reason, how much do you weigh? If you don't mind me asking

[@bfosterkayaking]

I’m about 180-185 pounds without gear. At my weight the L is fast, easy to turn, and runs lines really well. It’s easy to squirt to about 45 degrees. Harder to get it above that. I haven’t back entered it, but my hips do go under the current quite a bit, as is the nature of a half slice. I have my seat back and wish I could put it back further at least to see how it handles. It’s a really fun boat. I was surprised by how progressive the rocker is since that isn’t the modern trend, but activating it helps it squirt and the stern has a long planing surface that feels great at speed. The Ripper 2 M squirted incredibly but didn’t run lines well for my weight. The L Rewind is too big. The Ripper 2L hits a nice sweet spot for my size.
