Default Which boat

Im gonna paddle a playboat. its time for a change
this is my agenda. i wanna go creeking, but i need to get fit/sharp and dont feel like i get thrown round enough or roll enough. I would like something that engages me in terms of having to think about what im doing and provides challenges. I want the skills that are learnt to be transferable to the creek boat.
What d'ya reckon?

whatever wins i will take out.

I've missed the closing date of the poll but, if it helps I vote for the Trickster / Glide. Should ensure you have to work harder watching those edges and forcing the odd roll!

Good luck.

my schelegels are too precious an ornament to take out on the water. Much better to bash around the werners
the schlegels will stay in the warm and dry.
