Waka Manu

$2,800.00

*If you are below 170 lbs this kayak feels more like an increible high performance river running creek boat (Squirts and Splats are still very possible but need good technique)…Once you get over 180-190lbs you can really start to turn this design into a half slice play machine. The heavier you are the more playful the kayak will be, but it will continue to support you safely through class 5.

DESCRIPTION
The Waka Manu sets new standards in creeking. With this model, Waka Kayaks is launching an uncompromising creeker that deliberately bucks the trend of recent years. Instead of flat, hybrid shapes, the Manu offers exactly what many paddlers want: a fully-fledged creeker with balanced volume distribution and plenty of rocker in the bow and stern.

The result is a kayak that is extremely intuitive to paddle and simultaneously gives you the confidence to push your personal limits. Whether steep drops, technical lines, or powerful whitewater – the Manu remains predictable and provides control at all times.

Its agility is particularly striking: quick changes of direction are effortless, allowing you to navigate precise lines even in complex sections. In terms of maneuverability, the Manu is reminiscent of the legendary OG, while its speed is roughly between the OG and the Stoke – the perfect balance of control and speed.

In short: The Waka Manu is a modern creek boat for paddlers seeking maximum performance, confidence, and fun on challenging whitewater.
