I have 2 of each and it depends where you are in your comfort level. The outback is a pain to paddle and does not track well with out leaving the rudder down. In kelp and landing in the surf that can be a slight problem leaving it down. But if stability is what you seek then the outback is what you want.

The revos track well and cut the water a whole lot easier than the outback whether peddling or paddling. It makes the long trips easier. I have had my two kids with me and one of them will fall asleep on the dang thing after a couple of hours on the kelp! He has yet to fall in the water!

The revo's you don't have as many pole holders as the out back.

The bottom line is you can't go wrong with either one! They are both great rides!

Best of Luck!
