The LiquidLogic Remix XP 10 is an excellent choice if you want to paddle on both calm lakes and whitewater.
The Remix XP10 is an extension of Liquid Logic's popular river runner series and although its roots are firmly planted in whitewater, this kayaks extended waterline allows it to cruise the flats with ease. The Remix XP10 has an integral skeg which when deployed offers superb tracking but with the skeg tucked away this great kayak offers the agility needed to excel on whitewater.
This first challenge was to make it whitewater friendly for everyone taking special notice to beginners looking at venturing out for the first time and for intermediate and expert paddlers desiring to camp out of their kayak. By adding additional width to the hull they achieved the stability they wanted even when loaded to the gills with camping gear. The next challenge was speed and tracking for the folks that would use it primarily on lakes and calm rivers and as we all know whitewater boats just don't want to go straight on flatwater and will tend to veer right or left. Speed was achieved by extending the length and waterline of the Liquid Logic Remix XP10 and by dropping the rocker profile slightly really cuts through the flats. Now they had to fix that nagging veer, by adding a spring loaded skeg (don't worry the spring is made from stainless steel) to the stern, that annoying veer was immediately gone for good and paddling across vast sections of flatwater became a no brainer.
Summary: If your looking for an all around go anywhere kayak that is comfortable, safe and easy to paddle look no further than the Liquid Logic Remix XP10. They spared no expense in designing this true "Crossover" kayak so that you can have the time of your life. MUST SHIP TO A BUSINESS ADDRESS. We are unable to ship these boats to a residence.
