Distance Racing Skis

 In stock from June,( 4 Sold and only 4 Left!!  24/06/08) the latest ski from Red7 has had rave reviews. Made in 1 piece with no seam, the vacuum molded ski has tremendous strength to weight ratio with the standard glass model weighing just 15kg to 17kg.  All skis have a single foot well which allows for smoother design, adjustable to cater for any size paddler and a narrower craft. The anti-roll hull gives great stability yet does not compromise on performance. The registered venturi design minimizes drag and increase draining efficiency

New Production Process

All Red7 craft (arriving June) are now vacuum infused moulded in one piece. This means there is no structural join between the deck and the hull. This gives a lighter, stiffer and stronger craft. This is a world first in the manufacture of surfskis.

15% lighter, no seam cracking or delaminating, yip, we have taken the weakness and turned it into a strength.

Designed from the ground up by Oscar Chalupsky, Greg Barton and computer whiz John Dixon, the Epic V10 is incredibly fast and agile while maintaining comfortable stability. While we met our goal of designing a boat that is faster than the competition on flat water, the Epic V10 really shines in downwind and upwind heavy sea conditions.  A fully adjustable footbrace combines with a high capacity venturi drain to keep water out.  The single footwell and front deck cutaway allows for a closer, more powerful stroke. The skis come in 4 constructions; Value, Performance , Ultra, Elite and 3 styles; V10, V10 Sport, & V10 Light

Value (club):  The Value construction, also called the Club version, got its name simply because it is the most economical construction option we offer.  It is also our heaviest construction, yet comparable to most competitors standard boats
  • Value construction boats have a blue seam line
Performance:  The Performance construction is a composite hybrid.  We consider it to be the best value in the industry.  Performance kayaks are significantly lighter than the competitions equivalent products, yet are offered at a comparable price point.
  • Foam core
  • Performance construction boats have a black seam line
Ultra:  The Ultra construction is very light and popular with the fitness and racing paddlers.  It is light, stiff and extremely strong in the water.  Our Ultra disclaimer states that while stronger in the water than the Value and Performance lay-ups, the Ultra is more susceptible to impact damage and requires more care when handling.
  • Nomex foam core
  • Woven Kevlar fabric
  • Ultra construction boats have a red seam line
