Sport 600 with surfski pedals – When originally SeaBird Sport 600 was produced with Power Pedal Pro, then now it comes standard with the surfski pedals – the high-effective carbon pedals with 3 point locking. Surfski pedals are fully adjustable, one piece curved prepreg carbon plate with flexible pedals. They are stiff to allow full pressure without any unintentional turning, but they flex just enough to give you full steering potential when needed. High friction peel ply surface gives you a secure grip regardless of your footwear.
Successful scale-down
Seabird may offer the fully adult polyethylene kayak in a diminished version. Medium-sized paddlers or those who don’t need a huge loading capacity may thus enjoy a more suitable boat.

Can a hiking kayaker paddle a sportier kayak faster that his or her regular sea kayak and, if so, how much? Is achieving a good speed more influenced by the speed of the boat or by the kayaker’s own physical ability? We attempted to find the answers to these as well as other questions concerning fast boats with the help of the historical first kayak testing of our magazine.
