ABOUT OUR KAYAKS

Klepper Aerius II

These are the legendary kayaks which totaly changed and define our wiev about recreational and expedition kayaking. They suit more for waves on the sea or easy white water. The specialty of Aerius are two air tubes, which makes kayak even more stable and safe.

Pouch RZ 85

The Klepper concurrents. They're even faster, more stable and simple. More suited for flat waters. They are more robust, with lower coaming, more space, but in the waves on the sea they demand a little more.

Of importance

- Our foldable kayaks are very stable. They hardly overtourne and are the safest on the market.
- Paddling kayak doubles mean that the power is double. Two person paddle just one kayak.
- The bigest point is their construction. They are skin-on type . That means they glide better and with a smaller effort we can reach the cruising speed of aprox 6 km/h. With more power kayak doesn't go faster. So the man and women or the strong and weak are equall.
- Double kayaks are funnier, with more social moments and there's always one who can paddle even if the other is tired. With just 30% of paddling power from the other paddler we can reach the normal cruising speed.
- Open cocpit of our kayaks are overy importante. There's no feeling to be tied in and entrance or exits from or to kayak is a way more simple. All our kayaks has rudder and are easy too steer.
- Loading and unloading of the equipment is very easy and there's enough space even for longer expeditions.
