Description

Super fast and narrow race design for junior-aged riders and lightweight paddling athletes. If fast racing is your thing, the Vortex will deliver. Designed with the widest apex just ahead of the paddler, the long tapered narrowing towards the tail ensures efficient and fast water run-off to improve drag dynamics. Supplied with Mistral carbon race fin.
