Review:
The S6 is lovely wee example of a true hole boat. It’s not
great on waves in all honesty, but it was a breakthrough in looping
design and helping those who need it to get bigger air than they
could get before.
It’s very stable in a hole and is not too blocky and rectangular
to make it unstable in larger holes. It has a nice progression from
the rails to the bow and stern of the boat without it being a really
smooth boat i.e. not all curvy and surf like. It has good rocker
allowing it to release really well in the hole when doing loops
and blunts.
It doesn’t fall around like most kayaks in a hole as it has
been predominantly made for the job rather unlike a midway wave
/ hole boat, which is as I have said above has more of a surf boat
smoothness of angled features. This is a good boat fore those wanting
to learn to play hard. The plastic has been improved and helps to
reduce weight to strength ratio.
S6 [190]
Definitely a boat for those who are smaller and lighter say 11 stone.
S6 [200]
For those above at least 13 stone to get the full potential of its
size or else you will end up sloshing around in it.
