How does she handle the rapids compared to the hard shelled kayaks?

I've never paddled a hard shell in whitewater. From what I know packrafts are easier to learn on, they are more stable and you are less likely to flip. They are less likely to get sucked into holes, since they are so buoyant. Instead of crashing into rocks you bounce off them. Hard shells are always going to be more precise.
