Manta-r - the "carving" kayak:

The Manta-r is the development of Ex-Vice World Champion Ed Wolffhardt. The patented design of the boat allows the canoeist to obtain a better curve acceleration.

 

Advantages:

• more draught

• achieving a clear curve (carving radius)

• less lateral drift

• uses the force of currents

• better acceleration

 

The kayak was developed in collaboration with MICADO who contributed their know-how in the fields of engineering, simulation, and prototyping.
