Topo

I've had my topo for about a year now and its great. Tight technical runs where everything else gets stuck somehow the topo goes on auto pilot and misses everything. On drops resurfacing is instant. The outfitting is basic but is tough and does the job so great! Its not the best hole punching boat but is suprising the holes it gets through and how easy it is to get out of the others. Buy one! everyone needs a topo.

I love this little potatoe for how quick it does its things, it's still the fastest smoothest rolling boat I've paddled. It pops out of holes to give you some air time if you want it. It does not however have the design for freestyle playing so look elsewhere if that's your aim. Can't beat it for those fast moving river spots. The traditional hull design makes this boat a very easy transition from the bigger river running kayaks. In that transition you'll quickly note the lack of ability to track, in fact it doesn't track at all so your paddling skills will need to compensate here.

Excellent boat for super tight technical creeks. I am digging the topo for low water creek runs and am actually handpaddling it down these runs. It boofs really well and is super stable for such a short boat. It is a classic boat that even after 25 years still serves a purpose.
