About our boats ...
 
Ultralight Composite - KayakSportCanada is a provider of high quality paddles, canoe and kayaks. Our boats and paddles are produced with attention to details and are all individually handcrafted. Each boat lay up and settings are carefully mastered as to insure maximum hull stability and resistance. Each seating layout and foot rest as well the riggings are designed and installed as to assure a long lasting reliable durability.
 
Construction Technology System
 
Ultralight Composite has acquired technology that uses vibration together with vacuming for maximum resin penetration into the kevlar/carbon/seftex and glass. A specially built roller apply the resin during the layup. The roller vibrates and pushes the resin more effectively among the texture of the fibers, wetting them so thoroughly that no dry areas (resulting in soft spots) are left. Vacum bagging then further distribute resins. This process produces very light and rigid hulls.
 
Seating System
 
The seating system is designed for a no-tool quick set-up. The sprint boats seating system is designed to be flexible and easy to change. It is of the "platform based" type with two "pin based" locking points the back and with a a "twist" locking system in the front.

The seat angle (aft angle) can also be changed to meet different "high/low knee position" styles of paddling. The seat is mounted on aluminum rails: two pair of screws control the seat angle.

To set-up the seat for a lower knee position just tilt the back of the seat up. This will lower the height of the seat's front thus reducing the pressure on the sciatica nerve and increasing overall seating comfort.
