LOOKING BACK - Right now we are heads down, considering the next project?, the next model surfski?, What events are coming up next?, what new materials are available?, new layups etc, etc. What you did last season, flashes past and is gone. Recently going through photographs to delete I came across these awesome pictures of very young paddlers, some of them in them very first races in the ocean, in a local schools challenge. It makes you stop for a moment and consider the impact our surfskis have had not only in the open market, but in these young lives when you see the grit and the smiles on their faces. It may be our past but it is the making of their future.

TONY BOTHES - See previous post “Now that I have the hang of it I will see you later “

SPECIAL SKIS for SPECIAL PEOPLE - Tony Bothes, well known river canoeist and all round sportsman, a recent amputee having come through a life threatening illness, is determined to paddle again. So far he has been back on the water in the back of a K2 canoe with the help of friends. Not nearly back to full physical strength yet, he never thought he would ever be able to steer a single kayak again. Having customised surfski’s for amputee’s before I convinced him to try one of our new entry level TIDE single skis, customised for single foot steering.
A very nervous Tony took to the water this morning and an emotional Tony came off the water after a long easy paddle around the Umgeni estuary, easily mastering the single foot steering for the first time. Whenever I get involved in somebodies journey like this it leaves me feeling humbled by their courage and the satisfaction of having designed a great entry level surfski. The TIDE single’s stability boosts confidence but still has the glide feel of a K1 through the water. A short video of his first tentative strokes getting used to the steering with one foot.

APEX 2 - Double surfski. Fresh off their first Freedom paddle surfski race around Robben Island in the Cape, Dave Imrie and Amanda Seidler took on the daunting KZN South Coast surf in the Aliwal Shoal Leatherback Rum Surfski Challenge in their new APEX 2 double ski. Testimony to the user friendliness of the APEX 2, they negotiated the 6ft surf with ease both in and out but had a great glide and cruising speed cover the distance in glassy smooth fast offshore conditions.

A special ski for a special customer. A full carbon PHANTOM single ski adapted for amputee Gavin Smith. The gutsiest paddler I know has paddled an adapted HORIZON X and APEX 2 double skis for single foot steering for a number of years. Progressing now to being able steer with a prosthetic leg, giving him improved balance he can now move on to a faster competitive ski. He is excited at the prospect of being able to leg drive now and go a lot faster. It has been both humbling and a privilege to have travelled this journey with him back into more competitive racing.
