SPECIAL FEATURES
POWERGLIDE FOOTREST SYSTEM
In 2014 after 2 years of development and innovation Vajda introduced a unique POWERGLIDE no screw Footrest system into all their kayaks.
This system allows one handed fast adjustment of the footplate positioning and can even be done whilst on the water during paddling. This has been a huge success for clubs with multiple paddlers using club craft.
The POWERGLIDE CLUB footrest is standard in all Club, River, Sport and Marathon constructions.
The POWERGLIDE ELITE footrest is standard in all World Cup constructions but can be custom ordered in your boat on request.
