Description
Stellar 18' Surf Ski (S18SX SM)
Designed for those with small frames or like a snugger fit. The S18 SX Small enjoys the same high performance hulls with narrower more compact refined cockpits that feature the new RT-1 footboard. We have raised and sized down the latest super comfortable seat and hump to allow for the best paddling ergonomics. The slightly shortened foot well and the narrower footboard/cockpit ensure less volume in the cockpit.
This allows paddlers to fine tune their fit to allow them to perform best in the conditions they like to paddle in. Note - if you have a hip with of 37cm(14.5”) or greater in thin shorts then you should probably be looking at the standard seat version.
About the Stellar 18' Surf Ski (S18S X):
The S18S X uses the S18S G2 platform and reduces weight and price by eliminating hatches. With its fast hull shape and narrow catch, the light weight of the S18S X can give you the edge in your next race. The rocker profile is optimized for efficient paddling and catching waves. All done without losing any stability and staying within USCA fast sea kayaks regulations. The DeBrito bailer makes for dry starts, paddles and rapid water removal. Under-stern/over-stern fittings, side handles, water bottle holder, carbon handles at each end, leash attachment and deck bungees still come standard on the Stellar S18S X. Making this a boat you need to put in your fleet.

Alpha - Woven
Excel
Weight: 25.7 lbs / 11.7 kg
Description: Very stiff and light, yet more affordable than the Alpha. Kevlar® adds impact strength to the laminate - Gelcoat finished heat cured epoxy Kevlar® and Fiberglass laminate with Nomex® Honeycomb Core. Great for racing, or those looking for a light boat, but not as impact resistant as the Multi-sport or Advantage constructions.

Multi-Sport
Weight: 33.3 lbs / 15.1 kg
Description: Single skin laminate hull made of Carbon & Kevlar® fabric, with clear gelcoat finish, and the deck is the standard Advantage construction. The hull is designed to be flexible and durable, but creates a stiff boat that can take some abuse in class I and II rapids and shallows, but is also at home in the ocean or the flats. The Surf Ski Multi-Sport construction comes standard with an over-stern rudder, as well as a flush mounted Andersen Super mini-bailer.
Advantage
Weight: 33.9 lbs / 15.4 kg
Description: Great combination of weight, stiffness, durability and cost. Gelcoat finished heat cured infused epoxy Fiberglass and Soric® core laminate is very tough and resists against punctures. A great race boat on a tight budget. The Advantage hits the mark for price to weight ratio for most kayak paddlers.
