Layup weights
On-water profile
Both scores are rated at the hull's own design weight. How these are derived.
Suits: Flat-water time trials and downwind for light, experienced racers (50-90kg). Not a boat to learn on.
Paddler weight
This hull is built around a paddler of about 90 kg. It stays workable from 79 kg to 95 kg, and sits at its best between 84 kg and 92 kg.
Derived from published hull dimensions and calibrated against manufacturer paddler limits, not taken from a marketing range. The method, in full.
Generations
Predecessor to the current Uno; composite race ski built for lightweight elite paddlers.
Lower leg hump improves leg drive for shorter-legged paddlers; reduced deck height cuts windage. Validated by World Champion Teneale Hatton.

What paddlers say
wesley (surfski.info): 'the most unstable ski I paddled outside my [K1]... it did not stop me though because it was fast and I loved the fit.'Reported experience
Stew, Think Kayak Australia (surfski.info): at 77kg found himself 'on the very lower limit' for the Max and kept returning to it over the Uno despite loving the Uno's fit.Reported experience
