HI folks
I have been paddling a plastic nutron for about 6 months now but just cant get comfortable in it. It still feels unstable and my feet cramp up after about 15 minutes.
It has been suggested that a Riot Boogie 50 would be a better kayak for me, as it is more stable and the feet position would be closer to that in my river boat.I dont intend to do any competition paddling for some time so a cutting edge kayak is not a high priority, just something I can live with and will help me improve my surfing. I weigh 85kg on a good day and am a novice paddler.
Any opionions or advice on the Riot Boogie or any other surf kayak that could fit the bill would be appreciated.
Cheers
Tony

A small Impulse would be more comfortable and less tippy. Also IC boats or a Bullitt "S"

Never even thought about the ic boats, thats certainly worth looking at.
Would the impulse take my weight?
