During all the hype regarding the LL Stomper pyranna slipped this new design out. They look surprisingly similar...

They are also releasing the Loki playboat.

Tons of new designs out this year.

Amazing how much it looks like my old Savage Skreem, now my wife's kayak. Would be killer if the plastic was as good as Savage's.

Definately looks like a good Big person creeker. Nice to find a boat that I would fit the medium size of, even before I lost the 35 pounds. Room for more gear. But no more toys this year!

Looks like old school boats (or at least a few of their characteristics ) are making full circle.

If memory correct, when Cowper got a Skreem, I thought I should give it serious consideration. I did and ended up with one. One of the top kayaks I have owned. I see a lot of Skreem design in my latest kayak toy a Villain.

I got the last cross link Response NOC had (might have been the last Response as well) and have used that boat all over and it never let me down. Still like to get it out for western river runs like Middle Fork where it shines. I see a lot of the Green River racer types looking for these old school long boats to race on that gnarly river.

I look at these new kayaks by Jackson, LL, Pyrana etc and am really impressed with what designers are doing for the sport.
