NordicKayaks from Sweden is starting to manufacture two new multisport kayaks designed by Fredrik Lindström:
  • The Rocket (610x54cm, 20'x17.7" is designed for long distance speed in all kind of water conditions, targeting the experienced athlete. The cockpit is more open than the typical multisport kayak, this to allow smooth seating and exit, but yet tight enough to allow a roll. The design of the deck is aggressive and extremely narrowed in front of the cockpit to ensure a close catch with the paddle stroke. Though, the nose area of the deck has enough volume to not dip down in waves or in big rapids.
  • Rocket+ is made from the same super fast Rocket hull but with a wider waterline to create more stability and minimizing the loss of speed. Rocket+ is targeting the experienced athlete with extreme ocean racing in mind or the intermediate athlete in average conditions.
NordicKayaks has its origin and base in Vaxholm Sweden. We are focusing on developing fast multisport kayaks for all type of racing conditions, targeting intermediate to experienced paddlers. The top model “Rocket”, which is one of the worlds fastest kayaks all categories, measures 6.10m and weights 12 kg We are not limited to the ICF regulations and can therefore design and develop boats that are innovative and meet the high demands and needs from our customers.
