| pros: | verticability very easy and stable, forgiving even in a hole, F.a.t. 2.0 comfortable, very good in a hole with good carving ability, good speed in river-running for a playboat. Very good on flat water move. |
| cons: | Slow on a green wave, need a pillow to play in a wave, to much rocker for a good wave boat. |

| pros: | one word: slicy. The boat will turn ends with little skill, and is loads of fun. the longer hull for a playboat allows for enough speed to catch fast, steep waves. Handles waves well if you know how to paddle in it. If not it will teach you pretty quickly. This is a poor choice for a first boat, but once you are comfortable in class II this will up the learning curve dramatically. FAT 2 outfitting is amazingly responsive. |
| cons: | too long to do flip tricks. The playboating bulkhead sinks like a rock and is difficult to remove and replace with foam. If you wet exit, assuming you have floatation the boat will automatically go into a bow stall, making recovery difficult. Also the cockpit is designed too low, decreasing volume in a location where free style maneuvers are unaffected. |
