Just a thought, but for my size and weight. Would you reccomend the Kaos in large, or the Astro in medium?

First off I have not extensively read through so if I repeat something already said I apologise.

I currently have a big dog kaos. It is fantastic I love both in a river running and playing context. I am relatively new to playboating and not a demon trickster however I find it exceptionally fun and I am learning most moves fairly easily. Your concerns on the outfitting however are common fews and most reviews will suggest it is poor, however it has everything you need and with a little work fits like a dream! I mean it does not have fancy hip pads which you can adjust the foam it takes a bit of time and a bit of crafting but for me that is part of the fun!! I would not write it off though and personally I find it more comfortable than the LL boats.

But these are just my opinions enjoy the search

Thanks for the assistance, But back in january I went to Des mes expecting to come out with a Kaos, but I got a good deal on a Project 52. Im happy with the boat, and I think overall that I made the right choice with it. Keep an eye out for a guy with an Orange Project, Blue palm apex cag, Blue palm sidewinders and a black Shredready Standard out on the rivers :)
