The seating position is both super comfortable and, aided by thigh straps, secures you in place when punching through waves.
The Dumbi's wave-piercing bow is pointy and buoyant and is shaped to shed water very quickly. This makes the boat great for punching through waves when paddling for the back line.
Big drainage holes through the sidewalls of the Dumbi drain water from the deck in no time, and has no negative affect on the performance of the kayak.
The hull of the Dumbi has a big planing surface for quick lift-off and fins can be added by those paddlers wanting more aggressive carving.
The Dumbi is the best accessory to hit the beach.
The bow of the Dumbi is designed to punch through waves to get you out efficiently.
The Dumbi is designed so that even novice paddlers will be able to surf small waves. More experienced paddlers can do more on bigger waves.
The Dumbi is a magnificent surfkayak.
