Floating at 6’3” 240-250, I can attest this is the best fitting boat I’ve been in. The design of the hull is everything I’d hoped for from Prijon, a big step up from displacement hulls I first learned on, but nothing too grabby. I do think the hip pads need to foam shims behind them for most people, otherwise just not as secure as I like. Thigh braces were fine after adjustment, you definitely don’t need them rotated out and all flimsy like that, once you pull the bulkhead back to get your knees up in that pocket, it fits better to rotate them out a decent ways, which only makes it easy to get in and out of the kayak. At 6’3”, I can sit with both my knees up and out of the cockpit!?! That’s incredible! The ONLY downside of that, is I needed to order a bigger skirt for IR, that XXL, which I believe only comes with a Lucky Charm right now. But my old Mountain Surf skirt has gotten a little tighter over the midriff the past few years anyways… ;D Thanks for your thoughts on the Beast!
I did a review of the drysuit I will drop something on the vest by the end the year but I can tell you it’s the best vest on the market today. I left a link above 👆🏻 where to order one if interested.
Great review Wade thanks! I saw a Pike on the water recently that the guy had put a Dagger seat into instead, it looked perfect! What's your take on the Guardian vest?

👍 welcome to midriff life
Nice thanks for the feedback appreciate that!
Cool to see some additional angles besides POV! Nice work as always, thanks Wade!
Haha so true
I hope to get in a demo when I get to France next spring. It looks interesting.
I’ve been paddling the Beast since April and I’m super happy with it. What’s cool is that almost all parts are produced in Germany.
Yes I can see that. So just the Ratchets and Ratchet Straps are not made locally those are made in China. I know because I use to order them.
Nice review as usual👍🏻
Can we expect in the future review of that Hiko equipment? I’m interested in your opinion about Guardian lifejacket.

Great review Wade thanks! I saw a Pike on the water recently that the guy had put a Dagger seat into instead, it looked perfect! What's your take on the Guardian vest?
Interesting on the seat. And the vest is the best I left a link above to where to get one trust me it’s really good!
Which will last longer, Prijon plastic or Wade, the world may never know, primary and secondary stab?
😂 definitely the Prijon!
@@WadeHarrisonthey will outlast us all
Did you try moving the seat forward? Looks like the tail was sitting super low.
Yes I went forward back center is the best for me
Cool review. Thoughts for paddlers in the 150 -160 lb size?
Will be on the bottom side this one is like a medium large but it’s not crazy big.
What river is this?
Russell Fork River in Va/Ky USA the upper and gorge section.
… Thank you for the good review
Yes Solid craft!
All Prijons have a distinct sounds off drops. Can always tell immediately it;s a Prijon by that alone.
You are spot on wit that comment they sound different
What river?
Russell Fork River KY/Va USA upper and gorge section
Nice!
Thanks!
How are you filming the 'follow me' shots at around 2:17?

@@WadeHarrison you’ve got it working following a kayak on a river? I Tried but it almost fell to a watery grave 🤣
