Riot Air

_____________________________
Air
The Air is one of Riot's most innovative playboats ever.

You can’t ignore how this boat is named – it’s about getting air . . . and so much more. We’ve created a "spud" that is faster, looser, and, of course, easier to air than any other. We've taken the famed ease of paddling of the Disco, and improved upon that too. Air is designed to get super-sized air AND cartwheel; anywhere, anytime. Within a few sessions you'll be taking your paddling to dizzying heights. Never have so many, gone so big, with so much ease. Available in 45 and 55 for every size paddler.

Here's an except from Corran Addison

". . . What separates this kayak from all the other Short boats out there is its speed and handling. While it is as forgiving, if not more so, than all the butt-bouncers out there, it has a carving rail that is startling and pleasing. This kayak will surf waves with ease that our competitors most wave specific boats won't even catch, carve into places that no other short kayak can go, and most importantly, air on anything bigger, faster and more spectacularilly that any other kayak.

Our top heavy weight pro's have been using this boat. Javid Grubbs got "ride of the day" in the hole riding competition at the Canadian and US team trials. Steve Fisher got by far the biggest and most consistent airs and tricks at the wave surfing portion of the event, and Rob "Air loop" Cartwight swears it air loops better than his darling Disco. And that was in an early prototype. Wait until you hear about what they're doing in the new ones!

Air 45 has performance from about 100lbs to 190lbs with peak range in 120lbs to 175lbs, and the Air 55 performance range is 150lbs to about 240lbs with the peak range in the 165lbs to 220lbs (and when I mean peak, I 'm getting silly because the "performance range" I give is the REAL PERFORMANCE range of the boat).

(Obviously, different style and likes-dislikes being part of that... some 240 lbs people will love the 45 and some 100lbs people will love the 55... it all just depends on what YOU like) . . ."
