Rod deliberately waited until he had paddled over 1000 miles in the Flex before putting together this review. He wanted to give you an honest, informed opinion of his experience with this surfski.
In this review, Rod talks the good (there’s a lot), the bad (there’s not a lot), and the ugly (that’s not true, there’s no ugly, but that’s how the saying goes). He covers stability, handling, downwind, upwind, flat water, foot plates, cockpit draining, hull design, rudders….and other tidbits.
Bottom line: If you plan to race against anyone at The Paddle Channel, don’t even think about getting this surfski. Otherwise, the Flex is something you’ll want to check out.
