Biggest downside I see is that it's HEAVY at 84 lbs! Looks very stable and roomy though. I wish I had a way to give one a test float.

BD, this is kayak that Alpha mentioned as well, good looking rig too!!, I agree with you it is heavy at 84 lbs and for that money ($700) I can save a couple hundred bucks more and buy the ride 115, I guess I will be looking for some yards to mow or sell my Mathews bow or something, since i do like the ride 115 best, the reviews on the Ascend are mostly good and almost convinced me, but one question lingers is how stable this thing really is, it could be very dangerous to find out I should have bought the ride 115 after i take a dunking in the middle of winter while duck hunting, another issue people complained about was the thickness of the material, they say it is thin and it even bows in when strapped to the roof of the car leaving a dent when released, I will go to bass pro and take a test drive in their pool in the back just to feel, maybe my GF will need one sometime
thanks for y'alls comments and suggestions!!
