Design

 

Front hull shape

Designed with enough volume and depth to prevent over topping of water into cockpit when paddling downwind while still being narrow enough for an effective catch. The small amount of front rocker allows maneuverability while maximizing hull speed and run ideal for large ocean swell, river racing, harbor racing and flat conditions.


Hull

A super fast hull designed for maximum flat water speed with a comfortable cockpit you can sit in for hours. Primary stability is excellent with out compromise of the paddling position, allowing the boat to sit flat on its running spot, skipping over ocean chop without the loss of an efficient paddling stroke.

 

Back hull shape

Round tail with small amount of rocker allows the ski to lift well with large ocean swell from behind. It does not sink or grab, creating unnecessary drag when going into the wind like some competitor boats.

 

 

Comfort, technology

Cockpit allows superior comfort that you can paddle for hours. Super stiff foot bar and responsive steering allows for maximum leg drive while still allowing you to put the ski where you need it to be when racing downwind or in a pack.

Custom colours, rudders and other specialized fittings are available upon request.
