Ivan, are you considering the PA? I went thru the same thought process and I'm stuck between The Revo and PA. Go test them both, bring your paddle and seat. that way you will get a fair comparison with what you will be using.

The PA looks huge. For those that have one how does it handle surf launches and returns? Ive considered it. But the size makes me think its a lot slower than my fnd and xfactor.

I plan in test peddling the hobies on weds.

The PA handles the surf very well. Real stable. But it is also rather heavy. Might not be a good pick for your shoulder.

As for the Revo versus the Outback, as was said previously, the Outback is a tad wider and thus more stable. I also own an Outback and am very happy with it, and it is light enough to lift easily into the back of the truck. My 14 year old grandson does it all the time.
