A kayak like thunder and lightning. The Thunderbird is a white water kayak which provides a lot of fun. Enough volume and the safety equipment offer a relaxed run during your holiday. Each wave belongs to you. Its flat draught enables an extreme surfing – a real fun! The kayak is reliable. It has a coordinated shape and an optimal distribution of the volume. Unfortunately, there is no place for a lot of gear but that doesn’t mean it is too narrow. You have enough place to enjoy your trip.

About Me
i am about 1 meter 60 and 16 years old i didn't bought this boat new and i live in belgium, so sorry if my english isn't always correct.
Pros / The Good
slices realy good through the water, enough volume for rollers, easy to roll, basic but good outfitting if it suits you. if you have big water you can even make some loops with it (i have seen it once). very good plastic. realy forgiving.
Cons / The Bad
not enough volume for some waterfall with a roller. it's possible that your tail is grabbed and that you get pulled back.
