I have owned both a play and creek version- if you are thinking about buying one, be sure to note and try the differences. The creek model has a seat that sits significantly lower and will be more challenging for a beginner/intermediate to roll. But it has the step-out pillar and the seat is much better attached to the hull.
@mmdghr- the Nomad is a great boat but designed for different applications.
I love the Mamba, I wouldn't trade it in for anything. Have a look at what it did for me in early March (my first whitewater kayak, and it was my first week in the water with it). Forgiving and stable is just what I needed before learning how to roll properly, lol. Looking back, I would recommend every starter to take a class, and one should consider themselves lucky takeing a class where they only use the finest boats (Dagger Mamba's).
