My son bought a Vapor 10 base model this spring and has used it many times. It is a roomy kayak for larger paddlers and handles very well. He is 5'9" and about 240lbs and loves the roomy cockpit. His brother is 5'11 and 280lbs and he also used it and liked it very much.
The only complaint we have is it is not good for class 2 or 3 whitewater due to the fact it swamps very easy thanks to the over-sized cockpit. It is very heavy when full of water. A spray skirt would make this problem go away.
Our overall feeling is that it is a great boat and very tough.It is used on class 2 and 3 rapids on a weekly basis and handles the abuse well.Buy this kayak with confidence you will enjoy it |
