Pure joy. The X-Lite is a small, nimble and highly manoeuvrable touring kayak designed lighter and smaller paddlers weighing 50-75 kg (110-185 lbs), as well as for larger paddlers who are looking for a fun kayak simply to play with in surf and rough waters. Like it´s sister models in the X-series, the X-Lite´s characteristics are defined by the shallow V, hard chine and low deck profile which offer unusually high stability, reduced windage and a sporty appeal. The X-Lite is available both in traditional hand laid fibreglass and in lighter Kevlar/carbon versions. The low deck design features a clean arrangement and 3 hatches that are mounted flush with the line of the deck to enhance the sleek look of the craft. The distinctive cut-away design in front of the cockpit is not only a design characteristic for all Point 65°N kayaks, but also allows for strong paddling strokes without the risk of contact between paddle and deck. The cockpit is of a keyhole design that offers the snug fit of an ocean cockpit as well as the comfort and ease of getting in and out of a recreational cockpit. It is fitted with the an ergonomically designed seat including a supporting backrest. The recessed fitting behind the cockpit is designed for towing and locking capabilities. The X-Lite is available either with skeg or with both skeg and a liftable foil shaped rudder from KayLab. The ingenious rudder control system allows for comfortable support as well as strong steering efficiency. The X-Lite displays its heritage in its graceful lines and aggressive appearance as well as its handling capability and speed, which translates each stroke into pure joy. The Point 65 X-Lite is designed by Swedish kayak designer Johan Wirsén. |
