      @johnclaassen9861 3 роки тому

      Hi Adam! Very stable just a bit wide for paddles on the sides but I'm use to my stealth 575s very small frame. Bambas are great for short missions if you just paddling 1km to 2km but for longer paddles I would look into the trident or stealths plastic model.
