General Info

Packed with  charisma and boasting exceptional traits for kayaks of their size,  they’ll fuel your passion for paddling with fast acceleration and an  impressive top speed. Maximum forward efficiency is balanced with  responsive control which will inspire you to explore new waters.

 

Graceful and stylish lines immediately catch your eye and it’s not  just the looks that are stunning. The complex hull delivers true  tracking and speed from a strong V-shape at each end with a shallow-V  running between. A smooth rocker and rounded chines give free flowing  movement when needed for quick turns or agility in the surf. Careful  volume distribution combined with the hull dynamics provide initial and  secondary stability to match the boats striking capabilities. With an  upswept, flared bow the Expression revels in the chance to cut through  chop and ride the waves.

 

Equipping you for longer days on the water the Expression range comes with a choice of two seating systems that can be fine tuned for a performance fit: Our Zone DLX system has a deluxe backrest that adds superior comfort and adjustability whilst our Zone EXP backband provides freer movement for dynamic paddling in testing waters.

 

The adjustable leg lifter fitted in both systems reduces leg fatigue, whilst the contoured padded seat and padded thigh braces help eliminate hard pressure points and provide the needed grip. Whatever type of journey you choose, the large bow and stern stowage compartments will house any kit required. If venturing far, drop the TruTrak skeg to lock in the tracking, then lift again for quicker maneuverability in tight surroundings. Position the skeg with our spring loaded deployment system to help maintain your heading in winds and currents. If you prefer using your feet to assist your direction, then our optional Tip-Toes controlled rudder can be fitted for adjusting your course without breaking stroke. 

 

The Expression 15 has a touch more length and volume than the Expression 14. This gives more space and forgiveness for average to large paddlers and carries heavier loads without compromising on its handling  abilities.

Whether wishing to hone your skills or exploit its sporty nature, the Expression series will keep exciting you for all those adventures still to come.
