Absolutely love this kayak. Small enough to easily maneuver in rivers and creeks but large enough to carry gear comfortable. Weight is good for loading onto my SUV.
Tracks well, clean beautiful lines. Fits like a second glove, adjustable seat (fore and af), adjustable back rest (angle and height) adjustable foot rest....tailor it to your needs.
easy to edge, good primary and secondary stability.

Moved up from a Venture 100 to the Sprint 120XR and a great move.
Tracks well for a "recreational" kayak. Cross winds had little affect on directional stability. Went where I pointed it,
Lot less crabbing than my old one.

Easier paddling than my Venture and glided much further without veering.
Rear hatch didn't have any water in it, and thats a good thing.
Day hatch (4") stayed dry (little small, holds a phone and wallet)
No front (cockpit) drain plug, will be drilling a hole in the bow and putting in a plug.
Even though V chines rock easily, felt very confident and safe with the design.
I usually use a foam seat cushion, took it out for a 5 hr trip and was still comfortable without it this time.
Got caught out in the afternoon winds (15-20mph) on a large lake, whitecaps and a 1.5-2' chop. Paddling straight into the wind and wave, handled it smoothly


4.5 out of 5 for value for $$$$ ($1000 CAD), Put in a front drain plug and gets a 5
