Yea ive been paddling one for years!

Great for learning in, cartwheels very easily and stalls are quite stable. Loops very easily too.  All in all a great first playboat, as they are quite cheap as well!

However its not as fast on a wave as more modern designs, and you have to work a lot harder to get air than guys in more modern boats. My mates paddle kingpins and crazy 88s, and it took me a lot longer to learn to blunt etc cos the boat was so much slower and less bouncy. My only real gripe with it is no matter what i do i cant get comfortable in it, there just isnt enough room for decent footblocks unless you have the seat fully back.
