| New Kaskazi Greenland Kayak |
As the name implies, this is an interpretation of the beautiful Greenland style kayak. Traditionally, Greenland kayaks sat low in the water, had flat decks and very slightly swept up bow and stern. The reason for this was to minimise the windage of the kayak since Greenlanders often had to paddle in stormy conditions. The traditional Greenland kayak had a single hard chine where the Kaskazi Greenland has a double hard chine to soften the look and improve performance.
The result is a long, low and slender kayak with striking good looks. The kayak is relatively low volume so it suits smaller paddlers (50 - 70 kg) very well. Very few kayaks have been designed around smaller paddlers. The Kaskazi Greenland has been designed for recreational and extreme paddling rather than touring so it is not fitted with hatches as standard. It can be fitted with a 200mm spin in hatch on the rear deck as an option.
