Vector S, SM, M, ML, L,

VECTOR follows the latest trends in speed boat development and is the ultimate kayak for those who want to win! Vector is the best for race over 1km.

Vector is a sprinter boat of the highest parameters. It offers better stability and a quieter ride.
This is thanks to the sophisticated profiling of the bottom and especially the stern with a V keel edge and optimal load capacity.
Vertical and horizontal movements of the boat and especially of the stern when paddeling even at the highest intensity are thus eliminated to the lowest degree, the boat rides very calmly, it is not “nervous” under the seat.
The deck is designed in clean, simple and elegant lines, with a higher front section to break waves well, and a lower rear section for better behaviour in the wind. The boat’s cutting-edge design is then complemented by new collars and the original logo.

Stability 1 (1-top race, 5-fitness kayaks)

Someone may think that the Sprinter (another Zastera race kayak) is actually faster, but it depends.
Let’s look at it in detail:
Vector is a boat that moves forward at a constant speed like a train, so for 1 km and more, the Vector would be a better choice.

The VECTOR ML is the most used size category of this top sprint kayak and has a recommended athletes weight of 70-85 kg and the larger VECTOR L is for 80-95 kg athletes.
The VECTOR M was designed for the lighter weight (60-75 kg) and the VECTOR S for the lightest athletes (50-65 kg).
