What Users Are Saying

"...In very dynamical water conditions (tidal flows, surf zone) the maneuverability of the Rödlöga is far beyond any other sea kayak I have paddled before. It is almost as agile as a white water kayak (which I also have paddled a lot in my life), but at the speed of a full scale sea kayak..."
