Product detailed description

Olymp XRS 55 - the resurrection of a legend, built for speed. The new Olympus XRS follows in the footsteps of Lettmann's legendary racing kayaks, some of which competed in the Olympic Games with Jochen Lettmann and many other kayakers.

It was impossible for Lettmann, especially Jochen Lettmann, not to take the opportunity to design a kayak for a new Olympic discipline - kayakcross. And not just any kayak, but the fastest and most agile speed machine - which is undoubtedly heading for gold again. In his quest for the ultimate kayak, Jochen worked with elite kayakers, both national and international, leading to the development of the Olymp XRS kayak.

As you'd expect from a Lettmann kayak, the Olymp XRS succeeds on all levels because it's a great kayak on and off the race course. It's a kayak for those who love the playful ride of WW. The bulky bow and pronounced rocker ensure safe and dry runs. Whether you love stern squirting and dip turning, casual river cruising or making a natural slalom channel out of rocks and waves, you'll never look better than in the Olympus XRS.

If you want to be at the forefront of the next extreme slalom, Olympus is the right choice for you. The current Lettmann model for the 2024 Olympics is also suitable for those who want to ride their favourite river slalom style or want to improve their technique.
