Well I never thought it would come to blows..... The Flirt isn't terrible to be fair to it, having paddled on for a couple of weeks I would say that after some serious seat raising its not the worse boat out there and in a hole its comparable to any of the other boats out there. Where is would fall down is that it is pretty good on Ugandan / Zam size waves I imagine it would struggle on Gower.

The Solo is a hugely under rated boat, the design is very good and as Niall said the cross linked plastic makes it super solid, I like the plastic step out pillar and the overall feel of the boat on the water. It feels much like a more responsive WS Habitat.

Obvioulsy I'm a touch bias towards i-canoe,

Ritchie:
The only reason they paddle them on the Zam/Ugan is because they're made in SA and are the cheapest boats to get out there.

Even people i've met, who are sponsored by them don't even like the boats. But i guess there will always be some die-hard fans... kinda like Tayto crips.
