Fluid Bang Whitewater Kayak
The Bang is no stranger in the Fluid line-up. Previously known as the Expedition Solo, this kayak set the standard for expedition kayaking. The hull is pure-bred creeker, but the boat also features a sealed hatch compartment to allow easy access to the stern. The hatch compartment can be used for multiday trips, but also for stashing rescue gear, photography equipment, picnic… The Bang features a semi-displacement hull with soft enough rails to keep even the most conservative paddler happy.
Responsiveness is what the Bang is made for. The rocker profile and stern shape assist with stability when landing drops and keeps you going where most boats will stall and back ender. The deck is slightly peaked for controllable resurfacing without losing speed. The perfectly distributed volume keeps you on top of the funny water, making class 5 creeks safer and more fun. Rolling is super easy, giving confidence in tricky situations.
