Boat: Air 45
Manufacturer: Riot
Website: http://www.riotkayaks.com/Riot/
Reviewer: Ronan

Review:
This boat is poppy and corky just like the G-Force 6.1. It has the same characteristics as the Dagger boat with the advantage of fins slots to allow the wee monster to get more speed on steep waves. It’s a real slow bitching process to get this fat ass boat onto a wave. Once on the wave though you can make full use of its true hull speed. To be honest the fins on the boat are a bit too small for them to be of any use and to make them longer would only make things like blunts too hard to release properly. However on the steepest of steep waves they work to the user’s advantage.
I don’t have a particular like of Riot boats yet because I feel the need for you to be at the top of the weight range, which is what is needed to get the most effect out of Riot boats. However for the heavier paddler looking and short ass boat to pull some nice Air Screws or Loops then this little Riot is the way to go.
The Riot Air 45 inall her beautiful glory.
