Just found an immaculate LUV ❤️! Only issue I'm having is one of the backing plate for the seat is gone. Any leads on acquiring one? This boat needs to be back on the water, basically a brand new 20yr old score!
Yeah I'd say if you could fit into a session plus you could fit in this boat. At 6 ft. Size 10 ft. I had plenty of room. I'd say the max is probably 6, 4 or 5 and nothing bigger than a size 12 foof
@@philipmcdonald5629 I'm 6'4" size 12 ft, fit comfortably in my Luv in very low profile neoprene booties. Shoes are a no-go at that height. All seat positions except extreme forward are doable for me.
Hey man I sure do have a prijon wizard. I like it alot, but I also have a large quiver and use it for only certain things. It's a great river running kayak, not very playful and not a lot of length. The shortness of the boat makes it maneuverable but also kills it's speed. It's very fast on a wave with ample volume and rocker in the bow. Now the hatch is a little annoying, I actually upgraded mine to the newer style hatch that Prijon makes at $140 and made it really dry. The original hatch leaked and would fill up the neoprene pouch with water. It's definitely unlike any boat on my channel and I don't have a review coming up for it, but those are my main takeaways.
It is a good boat to get you're just getting into the sport but just beware that it lacks some features of modern boats. Make sure to adjust the seat and forward bulkhead and thigh hooks to get the best fit.
This is my single favorite boat ever made....I've been looking for one for 10 years :( :( :(
I have a yellow one for sale in Colorado
I'll be googling how to get that to Scotland immediately. @@cbrunner420

Yes contact Landis Arnold on Facebook he has spare prijon parts
Can you get a really tall paddler in there? It looks pretty big. Boats I like are the super ego, s8 235, session+, prankster

@@cbrunner420 6'4" here, superego is about the limit for me, I'd def be up for giving the luv a go at some point, love recycling some old plastic ♻️

Does it flex without a bulkhead because I got an Eskimo Nano and it’s a bad ass boat but I can feel it cave-in every time I try to blunt it
Never felt it collapse. And I've taken in on the Snake River in WY at 13k played in sting eddies and stuffing waves
Hi Prijon Talk, do you have an opinion on the Prijon Wizard? Looking at buying one. What model would it be most similar of with your reviews?
