Meet The Hot Whip 72
A play machine for the whole river, play spots and rapids included.
Let’s be honest. A playboat is great for tricks, but kind of sucks to take down river. That's why we created The Hot Whip.
The Hot Whip is the ultimate boat for those who want to play hard on the entire river without sacrificing comfort and style going downstream. As a half slice, it's designed with play in mind, but can still take on river running with confidence.
Engineered with play moves top of mind, the Hot Whip is perfect for surfing waves, stern squirting, splats, and any other playful maneuvers you can think of. But don't worry - this boat can still handle river running, too. It's not just a one-trick pony!
Like the RMX, the Hot Whip has a big bow rocker that allows you to plow over obstacles with ease, while its large hull platform keeps you sitting up on the surface of the water and spinning on a dime.
And with the crisp, tuned edges you've been asking for, expect a super slippery and buttery smooth ride. You'll be able to slide or carve effortlessly on any wave or play feature.
The Hot Whip also boasts a small, high-performance winged stern that makes squirts, stalls, and splats fun and effortless. And at a compact 8 feet long, this boat is easy to throw around.
So if you're looking for a boat that's all about playing the river with style and comfort, look no further than the Liquidlogic. Hot Whip. Just think of it as a play machine for the whole river - whether you're surfing waves, stern squirting, splatting, or just bopping your way downstream the Hot Whip is sure to take your paddling to the next level.

Thanks for all the great reviews. Currently paddling a Ripper 2L. I weigh about 215. Took the Hot Whip out for a demo last week on my local class 3+ run. The boat is a blast. Easy to load stern for tallies, great surfer that feels really loose on a wave, shorter than the Ripper 2L so easier to fit in smaller wave features, very easy to roll. The Hot Whip ran the river very well. At my weight and with 62 gallons of volume I expected some tail grabs or edge instability. I never experienced that, and felt that the boat ran the river very smoothly and did not sub out. I am looking for a boat with a little more play than the Ripper 2 for my local run. Previously I had an Antix 2 large and feel the Hot whip fit me much better and also played better on the stern. I love the Ripper 2 but have a much harder time getting the stern down, this boat may be the ticket as an addition to my quiver. I am waiting for the Firecracker 252 to come out, but not sure if it will be near as playful as the Hot Whip, Pyranha has the volume of the 252 at 76 gallons. So between the Hot Whip and the Firecracker 252, which is the better player? Looking forward to the Firecracker 252 on water review.

@WadeHarrison 10 месяцев назад

both are very good options paddle very similar, and they are in stock at link below if interested. coloradokayak.com/?ref=wade

@DonDowling1 Год назад

Love to see a comparison video between the Hot Whip, Firecracker 242, and Antix 2 MD: how do the bows react through features, stability differences, and who’s got the spiciest stern? Fit differences.

@WadeHarrison Год назад

Will try to get that together

@ryanmoran2393 9 месяцев назад

@IraFowler3 Год назад

Picked this boat up a week or so ago. Absolutely love it, feel like LL knocked it out of the park with this one personally

@WadeHarrison Год назад

Yup probably one the best they have ever done actually

@michaelsutton7451 Год назад

I’ve had mine for a month and love it!! I agree with everything you said, Wade. I’m a class III beater, and agree that it is so much fun and easy to load the stern, but isn’t grabby at all, unless you intended to be. LL killed it with this boat. I’m saying it’s an absolute must-have! Too much fun not to. To me, it’s much more predictable than the Firecracker. I’d say It has some similar characteristics to the Antix 2.

@WadeHarrison Год назад

I’m curious about the 252 firecracker the 242 is sized smaller this hot whip seems to be a big medium and fits me like a glove 🧤

@chuckbowman2524 Год назад

Picked mine up Friday in Fletcher and took down to the Cattooga. Love it. They told me they have started loading sandbags on the tail when they come out of the mold like with the Party Braaap.

@WadeHarrison Год назад

I did see some that had a bigger tail so that makes sense

@donaldgurkin3841 5 месяцев назад

love the review. bought a hotwhip this summer used. love the boat totally agree with your comments. my only negative is coming from the anti, hot whip doesn't surf as well on those not so steep waves and the speed difference makes the ferries a little more work. still feeling the boat out too. love it overall. stern quirts are effortless almost, so much fun!! enjoy all your stuff keep it coming

@WadeHarrison 5 месяцев назад

Yeah that’s probably the only drawback to that design with that rocker tail it does squat out on surfs

@matthewwitt552 Год назад

Thanks for the great review! I'm so stoked about this boat. I'm debating selling my Homeslice to get it since I've never learned how to endo or cartwheel and prefer sinking the stern to the bow anyway. Plus I'd be more confident getting the Hot Whip out on more of the harder stuff. Quick question: I already have a medium Rewind and love that boat. Would there be enough of a difference between the Rewind and the Hot Whip to justify owning both?

@WadeHarrison Год назад

I feel if had both would probably be in the Hot Whip 90% the time, but the rewind is such a great down river half Slice so to answer me personally I would not want both either one or the other but if had something like Goat Steeze Sweet Ride etc. that would be different.

@BrayDL Год назад

thanks for the review. If you could have one half slice what would it be ? Assuming you have a creeker and a playboat already.

@WadeHarrison Год назад

Tough to answer but honestly as for actual half slice the ripper 2 and rewind were just so good at everything would be between those with probably the ripper 2 edging the rewind out very slightly but for a small half slice which is kinda it’s own category now would be fire cracker and hot whip with no clear answer between those once again both are so good at what they do

@timlayzell5093 Год назад

OK, this weekend I tried the hot whip, sweet ride and firecracker while at Clackfest here in the PNW. For me the winner is the hot whip and I am going to buy one and finally retire the Antix 1.0 Large. The sweet ride was not playful enough. The firecracker was a little more playful but I felt like it would have been a little less confidence inspiring on harder runs. LL nailed it on both the new boats but for the kind of kayaking I do the hot whip is freaking awesome.

@WadeHarrison Год назад

So I reviewed all those do you feel my reviews reflected what you felt on the boats

@KayakCarey1105 10 месяцев назад

@brentjohnson8519 Год назад

Great review, I wish I had a dealer closer so I could sit in the whip. I am a day or two from pulling the trigger on a lrg Anitx. Would you say I am too big at 210 for the whip?

No, you're in a good spot at 210 trust me I have paddled the LG antix 2 I thought it was way too much in the knee area.

Great review! How do you think it would do in the 155-165 range. Do you think it's a true medium?

@dangerjudy5334 Год назад

...nevermind I saw your mention about it being comparable to a large. But I do wonder how it would do for a lighter paddler. I love LL.

@WadeHarrison Год назад

Yeah Matt’s 145 and he likes it a lot but struggles slightly to drop the tail down like a true HalfSlice he compares it more like a goat as far as play at lower weight

@WadeHarrison Год назад

To me It’s a big size medium In my opinion it’s somewhat in between the Antix 2 M and L and it’s bigger then the firecracker 242

@michaelpelletier7117 11 месяцев назад

@codychitwood2383 Год назад

Sir. I read a comment where someone asked you to rate the Hot Whip, Firecracker and Antix 2 in order of most playful. I believe you rated them in that order. How would you order them in terms of river running? I’ve got a firecracker currently. Like pretty much everything about it other than the lack of edges. If the hot whip runs the river better and is also more playful it seems ideal.

@WadeHarrison Год назад

River running dam they really are all very close i would say a slight edge to the hot whip but I feel the fire 252 is going to fit me perfectly for that I got little chunky and feel I was on the heavier side of the 242 and feel spot on for the hot whip so right now between those i would say hot whip FC 242 and Antix 2

@codychitwood2383 Год назад

@@WadeHarrison thanks sir. I like the look of the edges on the hot whip. I got a buddy that just bought one gonna see if he’ll let me paddle it, if not I’ll be hitting up ERA at the nantahala for a demo.

How does this compare to the FC 252 for someone in the 180 -195 weight range?

We are in the same spot and I liked the 252 for more creek abilities but love this for all round small HalfSlice

@Christgoldberg 2 месяца назад

@@WadeHarrison I have the 252 and do love it. I wish the edge was a little harder and bitey for carving. Didn't know if the hot whip would fill that void. Was also curious your thoughts on the stability comparison. I assume the 252 is more stable in every way.

@RZR621 Год назад

I paddled the Hot Whip and Sweet Ride at Tuckfest. I must be the only one who didn’t like them. Antix 2 M crushes them both. I also like the medium Fire cracker better than the Hotwhip at 205. To each their own I guess. I almost place an order for the Sweet Ride before the demo

@scottdarby7120 Год назад

What didn't you like? Why do you like Antix 2 M better?

@RZR621 Год назад

@@scottdarby7120 I think the Antix surfs better, more stable, and more predictable on a stern squirt. I thought the Hotwhip felt very loose while running rapids. The Hotwhip was easy to get on the stern but doesn’t balance as good as the Antix and Firecracker. All of my issues could probably be fixed with just seat position. I just demo for a short time. I owned several Antix and felt great in them all.

@WadeHarrison Год назад

Oh, I'm sure there's more out there that doesn't like them You are the first I heard not like them. And I think the WW center is not the spot to truly appreciate these boats. I agree with you there I would feel they would be mhh on a creek they both come alive. You are a full slicer so you like that lower volume feel also so yeah could see you liking the antix M and 242 more at 205 that's spicy as can be on those tails!

I paddled the Firecracker 242. I have 2 questions: 1/ The secondary stability (specially at the tail) feels quite low. How is the Hot Whip compared to the 242 ? 2/ Downriver I feel that the tail is quite loaded and no so stable. How is the Hot Whip compared to the 242 ? Thanks for your revisions and help.

@WadeHarrison Год назад

Yes it’s wider in the tail so way less squatting back there

@andreasonline9282 Год назад

I am 84kg. I would move the seat of the 242 forward. For my feeling the tail was too low (let´s say the bow is high) during downriver.

@andreasonline9282 Год назад

I think the best reviews in the market. Why do you want compare it with the "large" Firecracker ? The length and volume is more like the 242 I guess.

@WadeHarrison Год назад

Was more my own curiosity I felt I was little heavy for the 242 and thinking the width and floaty of the 252 would be more comparable

@andreasonline9282 Год назад

THe Hot Whip has less volume as the 242 but you think you afre in th eperfect weight range.
