Comparison: Necky RIP and Super EZ
 

I have paddled several years ... open water, fla****er ... seakayak stuff. I
have a good roll. If I get a whitewater boat, I will probably do river running
and go to the beach. I will likely never "play" nor do class 4-5 stuff. Could
see myself in some good surf, though. Paddled the RIP and liked it. I don't
see the RIP on the NECKY site. Do they still make it?

My local shop represents the Wavesport Super EZ. Without knowing of my
interest in the RIP they say it will suit me. The RIP is a tighter fit, but it
rolls well and I can wet exit. I guess I want some amount of speed on rivers.
The RIP seems to have less of that "flat-boat" feel.

While there is no "one boat," which seems a better fit ... for about 2 years.
Also, have I missed something else out there? I am 5-10/220.

Please respond by e-mail as well as post.
