    Pyranha Kayaks Loki Whitewater Kayak Review

    Pyranha Kayaks took their time bringing out the river play kayak called the Pyranha Loki.

    LiquidLogic Stomper Whitewater Kayak Review

    There can be no denying that the Stomper, the new boat from American company Liquidlogic, is a fast boat: before it even went into production a prototype was paddled to victory in the Teva Mountain Games over there in the states, which would have required it to hold a line well through some very big water, as well has having the precision to make the fastest lines.

    A short playful boat that’s at home on lakes, rivers, estuaries and indeed the sea. The Dagger Alchemy touring kayak is a great one for laid back flat water trips, but could be out of its depth in rougher sea conditions.

    Perception Expression 11 Recreation & Touring Kayak Review

    The Perception Expression 11 Touring Kayak is a piece of great kayak design, pure and simple. We enjoyed every minute of our time paddling it. It is fast enough to get some solid miles under the hull, and has the capacity to carry kit, if you want to and so will have real appeal to aspiring touring paddlers looking to do longer trips.
