With the "Machete" we have now fulfilled all our wishes and expectations for such a kayak. It is super easy to drive and extremely good-natured, among other things because it has a very wide and flat bottom hull. And this from the first to the last centimeter, from front to back. Then there's the rocker! THE ROCKER! The "Machete" is the epitome of the rocker. No kayak has more. The front and rear section harmonize like never before. The kayak literally floats on rollers and steps, always remains controllable and if so, you don't even get water in your face.»
« You can cool off with backenders and pirouettes. Despite its ease of handling, the "Machete" goes to the rear very easily. The reason is the concave rear section with the razor-sharp edge directly behind the seat, cutting through water like a machete through a banana tree. Once the Machete reaches vertical, you immediately get the feeling that you can anchor the entire stream by standing by the stern. But that would be a pity, because then you would not feel the incredible agility of the "Machete" in its horizontal driving position. No kayak can be ridden so cold on the back, course corrected at full speed or simply turned with a stern pull. The razor-sharp edge offers exactly the front-to-back drive you'd expect from a kayak of this class.. »
«The machete rides the smallest wave as if the devil is chasing it. The angular and flat hull guarantees a surfability not typical of its class, the Machete literally wants a ride and wants to tack and jump into the wave of joy.. »
