FLUID KAYAKS | DONSA
Many competitive slalom paddlers tested the Donsa and commented that it is the first plastic slalom kayak they’ve tried that feels like a real slalom kayak. It means that all paddlers now have to opportunity to paddle a real slalom kayak without having to pay an arm and a leg for it. The Donsa’s heavier weight means that you won’t take it to the Olympics, but the tough construction makes it perfect for beginner to intermediate slalom kayakers and slalom clubs. Experienced slalom kayakers who want to spare their more expensive composite craft from abuse when training on rocky slalom courses will find the Donsa a happy alternative.
