Description
Boat for those who have grown out of DINO minikayak, but still haven’t reached the size of junior racers.ANIK was designed by Canadian coach, former olympian, Michael Holroyd. Mike succeeded in changing the rules in Canada for the youngsters under 14 years of age, so that they can paddle kayaks appropriate for their size, not having to follow strict ICF requirement using same-sized boats for all athletes accross the age spectrum. Therefore CAIPI platform was used and slightly shrunk, creating ANIK at 316 cm in length and 57 cm in width. Not too many people know the name ANIK came from first two letters of Mike’s kids.Cockpit is about 4cm smaller compared to “senior” boat, which makes regular sprayskirt fitting just fine and securely, when putting it on is slightly easier. Kayak perfectly suits kids ranging from 25 to 45 kg. Thanks to this design, younger lighter kids can learn faster and implement the moves and tricks that otherwise, due to their lighter and shorter bodies, they would be just dreaming about in a bigger boat. Maybe ANIK will help to raise new world champions.All boats are built to over for custom sizing.Please use the following to get the process started on your custom Anik Kayak Galasport Boat Submission Form
