The Chopper is not the ideal surfing boat as its round bilge is not much fun if you are really interested in maneuvers and down wave performance. On the river our group shares anxiety's: I don't have as much fun surfing waves as they do but they can't keep up with me on flatwater sections. Nor can they get as many waves at the beach as I do. But, what it does offer is a long waterline for in and out ease to the waves and a hellacious (sorry, Rev.) hull speed. I paid 300 bucks for used one and it is a good generalists boat for down river and surfing. It is an easy boat to learn alot of things in and though I'll add to the fleet with a playboat, I'll keep the Chopper for all around use.
