Surfski camp 2010

2010-04-12

Fantastic reviews for Fusion!

This weekend we attended Global surfski’s camp in Gryts archipelago to show our 10 kg fully equipped Fusion Elite skis to the public for the first time.

We want to give Mr Global, Peter Ekström, a big “thank you” for inviting us and for arranging such an excellent camp. Even though the weather was typical Swedish April whether, 2-3 degrees, cloudy and with chilly northern wind, everyone was enthusiastic and seemed to have a lot o fun on and in the water!

The camp was a unique opportunity for all the participants to test almost all skies available on the market! We had about 20 people trying our Fusion Elite, both in the bay area and out on the ocean, from beginners to racing kayakers. We must say that we had a great response from all test paddlers and didn’t really receive any negative feedback (at least not in our face ;-).

Here are some of the most common comments we got:

  • 10 kg ski, it is incredible light and still super solid
  • Surprisingly stable for only being 43 cm wide
  • Surprisingly speedy! I feel no difference vs the competitive skies, even though it is more stable.
  • Super comfortable seat bucket with great support
  • The footrest is really comfortable and the steering response is very quick
  • Nice design, like a stealth bomber
  • The hatch option is perfect for touring

It is great for us to note that all the things we have focused on when designing the ski seems to be the details that people like.
