Awesome walkthrough. Molded drainage around the cockpit can act as a hinge point if the boat is wrapped that’s why a lot of manufacturers are moving away from that design.
Thanks for your input. I hope to collect mine within the next two weeks and everything you say here shows it is the right one for me. Super excited now. It's been a long wait.
Good review, I’m of the belief the Code is closer to the Phantom than the Mamba, the medium is very similar ( I own both) , whatever, it’s a great river runner, responsive and stable
Thanks Kevin. Those stands are from Malone, we carry them as well. We have been using ours almost daily for a couple years now without any issues. www.frontenacoutfitters.com/malon-elevate-kayak-maintenance-stand.html

This. ☝🏼 I’ve heard even repetitive stern tapping can weaken plastic at those drain slots. Seems to be going away w most manufacturers.
Thanks Hugh and Kevin. That's some valuable insight!
I love mine... this boat is next level..it bombs through everything

Great review! I’m hoping to try one of these soon. I own a rewind and it’s by far my favorite half slice and I’ve paddle just about all of them
Thanks! The Rewind is a very fun half slice!
This is a good solid review , thx
No problem 👍 Thanks for watching!

It definitely has some Phantom features! It's great to hear your feedback, given your experience with both. Thanks!
Nice review. Very thorough. Do you know what brand those folding stands are?

Thanks for the review Zack. Do you think you’ll have any Medium demos for next year?
The large is heavy on paper, how does it feel on the water?
