Designed by Phillip Pfister (French national canoepolo team) and Neklan Unger (Swiss national canoepolo team) as a project of fast and manoeuvrable canoepolo boat.

Thanks to a sort of slight central, longitudinal edge in the bottom of the front section, accentuated towards the front impact zone, the acceleration and the final speed has been increased.

The rear section has been shaped wider and flatter compared to “Sphinx” allowing for easier diving and turning. The first performance at the world championship in Mioshi in Japan 04 confirmed entirely our expectations.

DIOLEN

Economical construction for beginners. We use epoxy resin, E-glass fabric, 2 sq meters of SGL carbon/aramid fabric under the seat and sandwich stiffening ribs in the hull and deck, outside aramid and inside diolen seam, hard foam-pillars (Styrodur).
