I've paddled my do it now a culope of times since I got her a culope of days ago Superb. I've got a number of boats including a Jackson Villain, Esquif Raven OC1 whitewater canoe and a decked Alpacka packraft.I paddle grade 2 and 3 whitewater regularly, but I'm not an expert. My problem is that I, like many who are honest, suffer from mild kayakers vertigo (an irrational fear of heights, lower than the surface of the water). The do it now solves this problem brilliantly! She goes from edge to edge very quickly the knee straps work at least as well as the thigh braces in a decked kayak. The boat has VERY HIGH secondary stability, giving extra time to brace. She also side slips, ferries and snaps in and out of eddies much like my Villain.Some other thoughts No more soggy dry bags (the hatch is great and the boot cavernous), no more emptying heavy boats and no more hassle extricating long legs at the dock!Disadvantages? She's not quite as fast as the Villain and maybe a tad heavier However I've quickly learnt that the thigh straps make a handy shoulder carry strap when loosened!In short, great boat Fluid well done for combining a surf ski cockpit with a creek boat hull!
