I am 6'2" 200 lbs and paddle an Orbit Fish.  First off it is comfortable with lots of room even with outfitting.  I can paddle it all day without getting out.  It plays well (for me) in holes, river runs very well (a little slow out of the blocks), and I have taken it creeking (nothing too steep).  The stern is a bit slicy and low volume so lean forward on big drops or poor-overs.  I will admit that It does take a pretty steep wave to get it bouncing.
