K1 Falcon Q (M/ML/L/XL)
Ultra $4695; Extra $3895; Super $3695; Classic $3395

This classic hull shape offers slightly more side-to-side lateral stability  and better directional tracking in lower weight ranges, so it lets lower weight paddlers put down maximum power with more confidence. The bow is less likely to dive under waves, instead it pierces or goes over them. This model is still popular for club use to train and race under less than ideal conditions.

K1 Falcon C 
Ultra $4695; Extra $3895; Super $3695; Classic $3395

Our most popular K1 for maximum & uncompromised performance
With a U-shaped & thinned-down bow section the hull works at its best when being driven hard. The inverted bow maximizes the length of the waterline and hence the hull speed, reduce the size of the bow wave and has a better overall hydrodynamic drag.

It has solid longitudinal stability for rapid acceleration and minimum pitching movements. The kayak stays level in the water so is able to pick up maximum speed quickly, cleanly and efficiently.

Sharp cut away deck allows for close paddle entries and catches.

L: 17' (5.20m), W:16.1" (41cm), Wt: 21-26lbs (9.5-12kg)
Athlete Wt: 50-70kg
Stability rating: 1/10

K1 Revo 40 
Ultra $4695; Extra $3895; Super $3695; Classic $3395

KAPE's in-house designed performance K1 model with classic V-shape hull, just a bit more stability & more rocker for youth & marathon paddlers

The K1 Revo 40 has a modern deck & a traditional hull design, but with slightly rounded center section and more rocker. It is a great choice for clubs and individals starting K1 paddling & for balance training. Because of the bigger cockpit size, ample rocker and maneuverability it is also highly recommended for marathon use.

In terms of both stability, maneuverability and top speed the K1 resembles the top racing K1's from the 2000's.
