Carbonology Sport Flash from $3300

Description

The  Carbonology Sport SS1 Flash X is the the fastest and sleekest racing machine Carbonology Sport have ever built. The FLASH X is an advanced racing and downwind paddling craft.

It has been designed for bigger paddlers from 70kg and up. Paddlers will find that the hump has been lowered enabling an effective leg drive, accompanied by an extended footwell for more adjustable room. This is also the most stable elite surf ski Carbonology Sport has ever produced, gathering new inspiration and learning from previous models, we believe we have a perfectly balanced racing ski. It’s a winner made for champions. For experienced paddlers over 70kg the SS1 Flash X is the fastest boat in the CS range for heavier paddlers. Features a lower hump for better leg drive,  wider and longer footwells, integrated water bottle holder and  leg leash attachment point.

The volume in the bow and throughout the ski is very similar to all the other skis of that size and length. The ski could best described as a longer, thinner Zest X. With a longer footwell as well and lower hump, a much better leg drive is achieved. This provides an aggressive seating position without a “nose up” feel as in other skis.

“It turns very well and catches waves and runs the same as the Zest X in testing. The rocker is also the same as the Zest X and also has a very nice glide feeling from the longer waterline”– Hein Van Rooyen CEO Carbonology Sport

This is an impressive boat for the experienced intermediate paddler or rough water ski for elite paddler. If you are in the market, get out there & try it out…….given the subjective nature of ski preferences, this might surprise you.
