Brought to you by the designer of the Phoenix, this boat has been developed upon the concepts of Phillip Pfister (French National Canoepolo Team) and Neklan Unger (Swiss National Canoepolo Team). Our project was to develop a boat for the larger paddlers with the same fast and maneuverable qualities of the Phoenix. Its larger cockpit (2cm wider & 2,5 cm longer) and increased volume allow for a comfortable fit and make it a pleasure to play Kanu - Polo. The seat is also proportionally larger for comfortable seating of an XXL paddler.

Thanks to a 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 the “Sphinx”, allowing for easier diving and turning.

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).
