Sisu 16' Kayak - Custom

$3,995.00

A work of art, made for life. We believe a kayak should be as unique as its paddler. Choose between more than 10 colors each for your hull, deck, seam, coaming, secondary deck colors (stripes, chevrons, etc.) and more. You can even get customized colors for cordage and logos. We're still getting an amazing real-time custom builder made for our website, so for now you should contact us to get a personalized mockup of your dream kayak. Send us your color ideas and we'll make it a reality.

The second collaboration between Danish designer Jesper Kromann-Andersen and Current Designs brings the Sisu . Slightly wider and shorter than its predecessor the Prana, the Sisu is more nimble and maneuverable as well. The Sisu excels in rock gardens, tide races, wave faces and tours with ease. This exciting kayak is also extremely user friendly for aspiring paddlers to rapidly develop skills and elevate performance. Available in fiberglass and Kevlar composite constructions with exceptional outfitting throughout. Also available in a LV (low volume) configuration with a reduced depth of 3/4".

The Sisu Standard Volume is usually suited for: 6' - 6'6" and 175 - 240lbs

The Sisu Low Volume is usually suited for: up to 6'2" and 130-180lbs

General Information:
Touring Cockpit: Touring cockpits are somewhat small to help resist imploding of the spray skirt if hit by a large wave in rough water. They include built-in thigh braces on the cockpit rim to maximize control when edging and rolling. They range from 29” to 35” long, depending on the model.
Hard Chine: A hard chine kayak has a well defined edge where the hull bottom meets the sides. This increases the initial stability greatly. Hard chines give defined edging angles and assist in holding an edge.

Shallow V: The “V” shape improves tracking, has a lively feel and delivers very comfortable stability.
