The Kingpin proves itself again

I've been paddling for 3yrs. Mostly down river with my Jackson Fun.

I've paddled the boat down some class three and enjoyed it. Also paddled Schoolhouse (park and play) on the lower Klamath River.

I like the new 2007 outfitting. It was easy to outfit and confortable. I thought I would have a problem with stern squirts in the larger rapids but didn't (I get squirted more in my Fun). The Kingpin made it simple to go where I wanted. I had my joice between Project 52 and the Allstar also. It took me a month to decide and some demoing.

I am very glad I choose the Kingpin and am very satisfied.

I am a brand new paddler with only minimal experience. I want a boat that will help me learn the fundamentals and be able to run up to class three rapids. For the most part I will be running class I and II rapids and playing along the way. Would the Dagger Kingpin be a good boat for me?
