Thank you! Explaining the reason for the new boats having 1/4 slice, finally helped me understand what they are going for. My main boat is a mixmaster, and always found creekboats so boring. I have a few runs in a Ninja now and it has been fun. Can't wait to try this boat.

Matt, Initial thoughts in comparing the s/m to the med Flow for the smedium paddler? Does it feel less wide (both paddling and knee position) than the flow? Indra bow looks a little more narrow. Thanks for the reviews!

[@DownstreamV]

Seating position feels about the same but I like the Indra knee position a little higher up better. Indra is definitely superior in big volume water. I have not creeked it yet so can’t compare there but I’m willing to bet the flow has the slight edge there. Indra bow feels more narrow and it’s feels more alive if that makes sense. If I had to pick one it would be the Indra but it is still a close race. Both are very good boats and I wouldn’t be unhappy if I was stuck with either.

If you compared the agility, boofing, and how confidince inspiring this and other new ¼ slices that you mention are VS more traditional creakers like the Flow, Scorch, Gnarvana or Code how would you compair them??

[@DownstreamV]

I need to get these on something other than noc to answer this question. The ninja was the first quarter slice released. That one was more race inspired wouldn’t say it’s confidence inspiring it’s just a different type of boat. This Indra and reactr will be a bit different though.

@@DownstreamV the Ninja is an impressively fast boat, and so long as it wasn't overly rocky I thought it did a decent job of taking care of you. But ya I'd love to hear how you find they compare when you get a chance to, take them on something serious and see how a Stoke and Flow compare to an Indra and Reactor.

Did you have your do much with the outfitting?

[@DownstreamV]

No I didn’t mess with it besides moving up the foam block. Saving the fine tuning for the full review !

[@brianluisi7616]

Cool to see you watching other reviewers Wade

[@Whitewatersteven]

Is it lighter than the medium rewind ??

[@DownstreamV]

Honestly not sure we can find out soon though !

[@MicajahMcCurry]

No. It’s longer and wider so it’ll have more plastic.
