EK are now carrying stock of the Epic V-10 Sport Surf Ski, the boat we feel is the easiest crossover boat for sea kayakers to get into the exhilarating sport of ocean ski paddling. The V10 Sport has a very reassuring, sea kayak-like feel in the water, with secondary stability not normally found in these sleek speed machines. If you are looking for a fitness boat to beat them all on flat water, or a serious racing ski capable of footing it with the big guns in the ocean racing series, without the huge skill level required to paddle the narrower skis, the V10 Sport is the one. In combination with the Epic Mid Wing Paddle, we believe a newcomer to the sport will have the ultimate package for getting out on the sea & enjoying the thrills that Surf Ski paddling offers. For a short intro to ski paddling as it happened, read Mark Sundin's article on learning to paddle the Epic V10 Sport ski HERE or watch a short charge on the ski in some nice bumpy following seas HERE. As with all of the boats in the EK range, we will take you out on a proper sea test paddle of the V10 Sport, & introduce you to the sport & the boat in an instructional paddle, so you can answer all of your questions on the water.

Epic Mid-Wing (Burgundy Shaft) $625

The Epic Mid Wing paddle is the best choice for most fitness or racing paddlers. Unlike wing paddles which are developed for the metronomic flat water racing market, Epic Mid Wings are designed for the sea. As such, they have a huge degree of tolerance designed into the blade shape, making it far less likely that you'll be tripped up in rough water by a poorly placed stroke. With an overall blade size of 750cm2 it's a smaller size than conventional flat water wing or propeller paddles, so you have plenty of scope for higher cadence & accellaration, and the super light 705gm weight makes paddling a technical, rather than a muscular endeavour! All Mid Wing paddles come standard with Length-Lock™ technology, giving you infinite feather adjustment & 10cm of variable shaft length. We recommend the Burgundy Medium Flex Shaft construction option, as it is a more forgiving layup, better suited to distance paddlers.
