So I've been thinking about it for a very long time but I'm finding it difficult to pick one. I was holding out until the club got a toro but after trying it a couple of times I'm not a fan of it. The 2 main one I'm considering at the moment are the Exo Creek and Zet Raptor, but I want to try out a few more before I decide. just wondering what other creekers people really like?
Also not getting a Zen it's stupid money for a soft boat.
Thinking of buying a creeker

After hearing what conor did to jacks creek I'd say they are a solid boat too

The Pyranha plastic was fixed years ago! It's miles better than it was in 2011/12. But still, Zet plastic seems to be the best. Keyes has cracked his Exo 4 or 5 times.

Its their outfitting that's the problem, they use nylon nuts so the threads strip after a while, they might have fixed that by now though.stephenodea wrote:That Pyranha plastic tho..

Also wrapping a boat around a tree is going to break pretty much any boat...

Have to give a 9R a try and also the granate. Am Keyes exo had a very hard life every boat except the Zets would have been broken long ago. Not a fan of the mamba tbh.

If you are willing to wait a few months, the new Nomad will be out. Only the large is out now which would probably be too big for you. I think they said Aprilish for the medium.

I'm in no rush I want to try out a few more before I buy. I've used a 9r on flat water before, it tracks very well on the flat but have to see what it is like to paddle in flow. Need to try a tuna, Granate, newmad and maybe a few other if anyone else thinks of some worth trying. Main reason I'm thinking about getting one is its happened too many time that I couldn't go padding because nobody else in the club would.
