Hey guys, can anyone shed some light on any changes to the 2024 odel compared with 2023. Also, is the Revo likely to be discontinued with the focus being on the Compass or is it going to stick around? Want to move to a lighter Hobie which is quick and maneuverable whilst not being too unstable so I think the Revo will fit the bill but a lot of the info online talk about it being a surf kayak rather than for rivers and lakes which is my use case. I'm curious about any new changes and it's future generally.

Appreciate any feedback! :)

If Hobie stays in business and doesn't drop the Revo, I would like to see them replace the seat and steering with the setup from the Lynx. That would reduce the weight and eliminate the steering adjustments you have to make due to weather changes. The only thing you would lose is being able to adjust the seat, but I, once I find my comfort zone, I never adjust it again.

I think the REVO is the best Hobie kayak, and I've owned an Outback and currently own a REVO and a Lynx.
