Summary:
I have spent the last two years with an RPM, using for both worh (coaching) and pleasure (Surf, Rivers). During this time it has performed consistantly across a wide range of conditions and situations. From adrenalin fun in the surf to hours spent coaching and teaching, it comes up with the goods.

Summary:
I first used this boat when beginning to move up in paddling. As opposed to a certain review that says the boat is "crap", I must say the reviewer is full of crap. Great boat for those just learning to roll, surf, squirt, and play. Even advanced paddlers can use this to pull of some good tricks.

Summary:
An outdated boat that is way over rated.
The outfitting is crap compared to everything else on the market, crap seat crap footrest as well.

The hull is round and does not have a definate edge, making a begginer guess when they are on edge making it really hard to ferry. It does not carve, becasue it has no edge. It would only appeal to old school boaters looking for a step between the old cigars and the new boats. Do your self a favour get a flat hulled up to date design you will learn easier faster and wont be limited by the boat you have. Also the RPM never worked paddling backwards crap for scouting rapids on the big water it can supposedly handle. Do your self a favour and never buy this boat buy a Mehtod Air instead.

Summary:
I got this boat to learn on and it has been nothing short of fabulous. Its a great river runner that can do a lot. Great on big drops, and its extremely stable. Doesn't do a lot of the playboat moves but then again, it wasnt designed too. From what I have heard they are going to stop producing them. Its a real shame, its a classic boat.

Summary:
This boat is great. It is very stable in the water. It is a great boat to learn with. It is too round to do some of the playboat moves. It is a great entry level boat and as always aboat that is an old friend.
