All-Star, my thoughts.
On first inspection this is quite an unassuming looking little boat, nice clean lines, nice rocker break and pretty decent rails. Outfitting like wise is simple and functional very comfortable. Enough of that though, what’s it like on the water. I always thought with the old all-star, although great in a hole, on a wave was a bit slow and not really involving to paddling, the new boat has definitely changed this. Jackson have tucked the rails away under the seat and made the whole boat narrower, this makes the new All-star grip the wave when you want it to, and release when you want it to, much better! The new boat also benefits from a new shorter tail, witch make's hitting and landing BIG aerial moves Childs play. All in all I thought this was a top little boat that after 3 hours paddling was still totally dry inside. The new boat also paddles with a much grater sense of urgency than the old boat (fair bit more zip!), it also seams easier to throw around. At just under 13 stone however I definitely felt a little on the heavy side in it!
