Surf launches were awesome. Literally pushes the nose up and over the crest of the wave. It was super fast and streamline. Tracked very well and had plenty of secondary stability. I could lean way over and feel comfortable. I'm almost 300# and 6'4" I was comfortable on it. Fished mostly thresher from it. I'd never own this as my primary kayak because of the absence ofa rear well but if I ever found another one I would definitely grab it as a secondary or just asa leisure paddler.
