Waka OG.

We thought we had better give you some more info about the OG.

The OG has been designed purely on trying to make a kayak that gives you bigger balls whilst keeping you dry and high and looking fly. 

In order to do this we went back to what many people refer to as the best kayak ever made!The Tuna 1.

We added more rocker, some sexy lines whilst trying to take some of the good points from the Tuna 2.

 

We never wanted this boat to be super fast, we just wanted the paddlers to rock up scout a hole and say " Even if I miss my boof the OG will get me through". Whilst thinking in the back of your mind that your mates paddling other branded boats will surely get a beating before I do! ( True Facts).

I'm not going to lie, we were nervous about some of the design features like the fact the 3d model came out at 390L and we had to lie and say 370l so people didn't freak out. But strangely enough I still think it could be bigger. It doesn't feel like a massive boat it feels perfect and people really need to stop judging a boat based off volume because it is where the volume is located rather than the actual figure. You just need to try a kayaks and see if it feels good for you.

We also have some aggressive rails on the bottom. Aniol, Sven and myself were also concerned about this. Yet they work perfectly, you can steer the kayak with the rail and still turn on a dime with a sweep. Not to mention the effortless flat spins whilst surfing on a wave. They seem to help the kayak stay on top of the water so you stay as dry as possible

On the top deck we have tried to make the boat as sexy as possible. Looking to the Batmobile for inspiration.

All in all more than anything we are just stoked to have a kayak that makes you feel like you are the man or woman.

Huge Huge thanks to Andrew Candy for the amazing skills to put Kenny's thoughts into the matrix to make this possible
