Melker Rödlöga Trad-Core
Free Next Day Shipping Over £50 Auto Applied - Ends Midnight! (Excludes Canoes & Kayaks)
Description & Useful Information
Agile, playful and as fast as a rocket!
Description
This plant-based kayak is agile, playful and as fast as a rocket!
Melker Rödlöga is our most technical sea kayak with an unique balance between speed, maneuverability, and capacity for multi-day tours - an agile touring companion suitable for high-performance ocean paddling & play, choppy inland lakes, and swirling rivers.
The Rödlöga also features well enough storage capacity for an extended weekend with a cockpit that offers exceptional comfort for full days on the water.
The Rödlöga is designed with rougher waters, currents, tides and surf waves in mind. The great playfulness shows itself with the well defined rocker, the hard chines and its almost flat mid-section hull – delivering a highly responsive kayak with excellent manoeuvrability – making it perfect for versatile play in the most challenging waters. Yet it’s stable, secure and easily manoeuvrable in calmer waters - a perfect kayak to help improve your paddling skills!
With its tight and ergonomic thigh braces, the cockpit is optimised for intimate and precise control also in the toughest conditions.
The kayak comes with the all-new premium seat with exceptional comfort and easy sit-in adjustability. The seat also comes in three different sizes ( S / M / L ) and can be mounted in three different positions, which makes it possible to tailor the cockpit experience for every variety, preference, and size of the paddler.
Rödlöga LV and HV both come with the Medium seat installed as standard (seat compatibility scheme below).
The adjustable and rope operated skeg allows for true tracking in even the most challenging waters. The Rödlöga is delivered rudder-ready (rudder kits are sold separately).
One round hatch in the bow and a big oval hatch in the aft make it really easy to pack all the necessary gear and offers great space for the longer expeditions.
An additional day hatch is placed directly behind the cockpit, where the paddler can easily access a packed lunch, camera or an extra jacket.
The small day hatch, just in front of the cockpit, gives you fast access to your essential gear on the move as well. And the smart recessed area on the foredeck, between the two hatches, holds the water bottle or the pump in place – or simply out of the way.

Production process & material

Produced with premium quality resins, gel coat, fibers, and core materials using vacuum infusion and heat cure process.
