By far the worst kayak I've ever owned or have used. It ruined the Emotion brand name. Horrible engineering on this one. In flat water it is slow and sluggish. In white water you're flipping over the first rock you hit. Very unstable kayak. Will take all the fun and enjoyment out of the sport.
I've owned my Perceptions Acadia 11.5 for 3 years. It is my favorite of the three kayaks I own. Excellent stability. It's fast & comfortable. I've done flat water, whitewater rapids & water falls (cannot surf due to its length & keel), and have used it in the bays of the Texas Coast. I can't understand anyone not enjoying this yak.
