Velox Assasin

This is a high line competitive river boat aimed at paddler who doesn’t have that instinctive stability that some of the top athletes are blessed with. It offers a stabler version of the elite Velox range, with very good maneuverability and good straight line speed.  A fast kayak for a skilled advanced paddler. The Assassin is designed for the larger paddler of more than 75kg. While slightly slower than the Attack is offers greater stability making it a good choice for the Avon Descent.

It has a similar rocker and profile as the Attack and Assault but with wider gunnel lines to bring more secondary stability to the boat It is a great tripping boat, and the boat of choice for hank McGregor in big water.
