The TORO EVO was a very succesful kayak in 2009, with the second place of Boris Neveu ( France) at the Worlds in La Seo d´ Urgell and the gold and the silver at the ME U23 thanks to Vavra Hradilek ( CZ) and Boris Neveu ( FR).

That´s why the best paramaters of the TORO EVO were retained and some of the new ideas of our designers were included into the new kayak. A lot of top world kayakers participated in the design of the new kayak . Important ideas were put forward by David FORD, Jure MEGLIC, Alex GRIMM, Dejan KRALJ , Vavra HRADILEK, Mike DAWSON and Ciaran HEURTEAU.

The adjustment of the rear part of the hull has created a very well turning and very stabil kayak. Its speed is not reduced compared to the TORO EVO and based on the feedback from the top world kayakers after testing we expect the ECHO will again be a kayak of huge interest to our customers. The front part of the boat the ECHO has also been changed to go more easily under the poles of gates. The combined changes have again improved the boat’s dynamics. The ECHO is always hand built to your personal needs, such as weight, so you can be assured of the best performance.

CARBOLIGHT

Our highest quality racing boat. This Lay-Up is intended for the most demanding slalom racers addressing not only the improved construction but also the looks.

A combination of 3 types of foam sandwich, MGS epoxy system and superior vacuum bag technology, Carbon surface and Carbon & Carbon/Aramid combination inside the boat. Although seamless on the outside [except for the bow and stern tips for extra protection], double seams on the inside.

With this new improved construction, we bring to the market a very strong boat with good resistance to damage.
