A rotomolded kayak that is solid, fast and fun. When we started the Crunch design project a few years ago, our goal was to create the fastest rotomolded kayak on the market. A kayak that is as fun to paddle as our composite models, but with the ability to handle tremendous abuse and virtually maintenance free ownership. Crunch Rocket is faster than most other models in it's segment which has been proven in marathons during 2005. The UK Paddles Magazine wrote:"The surprise of the test was just how fast the Crunch could sprint. 11.3km/hr is faster than many composite boats." The design is based on the same principles as it's larger sister, the X-Ray: low deck, sleek lines with a shallow V-shaped hull, which gives it a quick and lively feel in rough weather and minimizes yaw even when fitted without a rudder. The well-defined chines allow for easier turning and a strong sense of stability when leaned over on its side. The rugged 3-layer polyethylene construction provides a combination of strength, stiffness and impact resistance that other materials simply can't match. The Crunch is a perfect choice for paddlers who don't want to worry about maintaining a high, glossy finish but simply want to get into the kayak and start having fun. The Crunch is fully equipped with day hatch as well as bow and aft compartments. The recessed deck fittings accommodate a very clean deck rigging system with full perimeter deck lines and ergonomically designed carrying handles. It is available with an excellent retractable rudder and innovative rudder control system that allows for comfortable support, as well as strong steering efficiency. The cockpit is of a key-hole design to suit all types of paddlers and is fitted with the new, ergonomically improved seat which provides better leg support for the more extensive trips that this model is designed for, as well as providing the contact needed when simply playing in rough waters and surf. The Crunch is designed by Swedish kayak designer Johan Wirsén. |
