From Spade Kayaks:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you constantly walk around in shoes that are too big, you shouldn\u2019t be surprised if you fall on your nose. Unfortunately, there are still far too few modern kayaks for children, teenagers and light paddlers. The Starfire works from a weight of about 35 kg and has everything to put a big smile on your face. The balanced rocker and the stable platform provide safety when winning your spurs in white water. Once you\u2019ve got the hang of it you can spin on the wave until you get dizzy or collect miles like a frequent flyer while surfing. At the upper end of the weight range, the Starfire mutates into a cartwheel machine for “full-grown” paddlers. Fun is guaranteed in this boat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
