Hello All,



Some exciting news from Think Kayaks with the release of the new Carbon Legend.

I think you'll all agree it's a fantastic looking ski.

Feel free to contact us if you would like any further information.



Cheers.

Agree it looks really sharp, but is this a good idea for visibility?  Two of my boats are dark green I and think that both are hard to see against dark water. Concern for rescue and visibility to power craft.

Safety is an important aspect of every Think craft, that's why there are features on the skis such as the leash point, internal kevlar seams, excellent build quality and bright colours that are clearly visible from rescue craft. Everything is done to ensure that you don't get into trouble because of a breakage with your ski, and in the unlikely event that something does fail, identification is made easier in the event of a rescue.


Of all the carbon skis on the market, this one would probably stand out the most with it's yellow cockpit region.

Hey Stewart
What will the price be and are they doing a carbon EVO? Will the Kevlar version still be available?

Hi Alex,


A carbon Evo isn't in the pipeline just yet.


And yes, the kevlar Legend and Evo will still be available.

Wanted to see if any early adopters of the Legend care to provide an update on their impressions after some time in the saddle. Also was curious about flat water speed. I could see where the hard chines might help catching runs but wondered if the hull shape was as fast as other elite skis in the flats since it's shape seems such a departure from  conventional K1 type shape. Other posts mention that the boat is fast, just wondered if that was specific to downwind or all conditions. Also how much bow volume does the boat have, is it like a V10 or more like a V10L? Thanks for any input.
