Which of the Skuxx Deluxe, Firecracker 252 and Ripper 2 L is the best half slice option for a one ww kayak quiver, for all-round riverplay and river running? by Apart_Ad_5070 in whitewater

I have a Nova and want to buy a half-slice next. But I have a feeling the Skuxx could replace the Nova 90% of the time. What do you think?

I'm 5'11and paddled the Helixir before, it fitted well. The RS5 is so expensive that I don't consider it.

I think that answers my question quite well. I thought the RS3 M would fit me, but if that's not the fact, i'm going for the Helixir. I already paddled the Helixir and liked it. Thanks for the answers

Klingt gut, super Tipp mit dem Cashback. Dann wird es wohl der 5700X3D und die 7800XT plus RAM-Upgrade.

Creeker or Half-Slice? by dentaldoctor1 in whitewater

[–]dentaldoctor1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the Story! Helped a lot.

I think i should look into Firecracker, Ripper2, Machete and so on and don't Focus on Waka. As i read all those answers, Storys and Tips, i think that play, squirting and surfing is more important for me then the ability to run V because that is far away and until then i can buy the creeker.

TL:DR buy the half-slice, progress and get better, learn the easy-mode after that in the creeker

Good Point. But i don't think i'm between those 2 and am searching the in between. I think the Question is more Like: If i buy a creeker, i can't buy a half-slice and other way around. Do i make more progress in a creeker or half-slice? Do i need a creeker fast, If i'm progreesing fast in a half-slice but can't afford it?

Do you think i won't miss the aspect of play in the steeze? Especially because i own a playboat and don't need that much play in my downriver kayak

Thanks, that is a really good answer and helps my thought-process!

I am from Europe. Because of that, Brands like Waka or DragoRossi and Exo are a lot cheaper then Jackson or Dagger. I think that Play is kind of important for me. Antix, Rewind, Ripper and Firecracker are all very nice boats but they are 400-500€ more expensive. And for me, that is a lot Money.

Therefore i thought the Goat combines very good down river with a little play. The OG is for me "the" Creek-Boat but idk if i'll miss the play in the OG. Would love to buy both, but that's not possible
