The new "lawn chair" style seats like the Hobie blow the old style seats away.....different ball game.

Yep, nobody would be crazy enough to go out every week in a kayak that did not have a lawn chair for a seat! (Except for me and a few dozen others?)

Seriously though, tippy usually describes only the primary stability of kayaks. Once you learn (by experience) about the secondary stability, you will forget about tippy. Slow, on the other hand, never goes away. Figure out how and where you want to use it, then choose a kayak that fits.
