Delphin 155
by Liz Forshaw
The most exciting thing to happen to sea kayaking in years!
New from P&H the Delphin 155 turns traditional sea kayak design on its head and challenges many preconceived ideas of how a sea kayak should look and behave. Where most sea kayaks will bite and lock in the Delphin breaks all the rules, it is designed to carve, change direction and generally rip up the wave then spin on a dime to get you back out over the breakers for another ride The cockpit has been moved backwards and the stern squared off so the bow just kisses the water but when paddling on the flat the stern engages and aids tracking. This combination is unique to the Delphin and creates a kayak that paddles like a traditional sea kayak on flat water with enough speed to keep up with the pack but transforms into a new genre of free-ride sea kayak when it hits moving water, coming alive in tide races, over falls and surging water. Speed hasn’t been sacrificed either, so the Delphin can be taken across the bay to explore rock gardens and caves and still has enough storage for an overnighter near a tide race. the Delphin will also inspire confidence in the beginner, increased width at the core makes the Delphin a forgiving kayak for beginners to surf as well as those looking to get their kicks in the rough, great for white water paddlers looking for something to do in the summer, so lose your tilly hat and touring cag, grab your sweet helmet and dry suit because this summer you will be ripping up the surf like never before!
