The Wavehopper is a true white water racing design in the ideal construction for an introduction to competition.
This quick yet forgiving design is extremely popular with clubs and individuals for both training and competition. It has also proved a favourite for multi sport events.
The Wavehopper is endorsed by most Federations for use in competition. Perception sponsors the British Canoe Union’s Wavehopper Challenge which has been established to grow participation in white water racing and show the excitement that the sport can offer.

My absolute preferred kayak !
Of course not recommended for creeking or low water... But with my second Wavehopper I ran in Italy the Sermenza gorges, and all the Sesia runs (included Salto di Piode, Alpin run and Balmuccia Rapid ans gorges). It is a race model, but very stable and easy to run.
