Epic Kayaks V8 Surf Ski Kayak

Fast
Very Stable
Ultra Lightweight
Fully Adjustable Footbrace
Epic Surf Ski Rudder

The fast, yet extremely stable Epic V8 is unique in its class. This is a surfski that most kayakers should be able to hop right onto and paddle off.

The deck features all the surfski simplicity of the V10 and V12, the main components being a fully adjustable footbrace and rear deck bungees. The V8 also incorporates some new features that add to its user friendly appeal: molded in bow and stern carry handles, and a water bottle holder in the cockpit. Venturi drain, breather tube and Epic surfski rudder configurations are standard.

Epic’s goal with the V8 is to provide a boat that bridges the gap between sea kayaks and surfskis. By blending speed, high stability and a performance oriented deck and outfitting, the V8 offers new levels of accessibility and opportunity. Fitness paddlers and racers who want extra emphasis on stability, touring kayakers looking to make the transition to high performance surfskis, or cruisers looking for a simple, efficient boat for a day on the water. The V8 will take you there.
