A playful and nimble kayak for day and weekend trips where high seas and surfs are more than welcome. A boat for those who appreciate contact in leans, edges and manoeuvres. Low volume. Low profile. Tight cockpit. Its responsiveness in combination with good tracking also makes a suitable mid/long-range kayak for smaller paddlers. It has three watertight compartments and is standard equipped with the Kajak-Sport skeg system. Carbon light (CL) hull of carbon fiber sandwich with diolen resin with a deck constructed in fiberglass and vinylester.
CL has the same rigidness as the XR but is by far the most lightweight lay up of the three.
The Distance is prepared for use with a rudder, yet the rudder is an option.
