River Running With a Play Boat

I just bought a wavesport project 52 because I got a good deal on it. The thing that I want to do the most is run class IV and V on high flow rivers like the Gulley and New River in West Virginia. Will the project 52 work in these situations?

...might demo a few before you buy.

With out more info it's tough to say. Post your inseam, inner-inseam, zipper length, Crock size (left), skittles level and your home address and I'm sure folks would have more quality recommendations for you.

I'd recommend first getting into a XXX, T-bird, or a Trojan-4Play (her)-Sure. Lake Creek is at a comperable level now to the big water your looking for so, that'd be your best bet for pre-purchase beta runs.
