I took this kayak solo on the Colorado and did well with most rapids, though I got tossed once on the biggest wavve of the stretch I was on. It was a little cumbersome with just myself, though my gear, unstrapped, stayed put and the boat had no fear of tipping. The wideness of it made it a little tough for me to really feel secure and tight within, as well as the length to steer with only my one paddle. However, I am an amateur kayaker and I imagine this guy would perform just fine for a more experienced admiral!
