SS1 SURFSKIS - THE OCEAN, UNFILTERED
If speed is your language, the surfski is how you speak it. Sleek, narrow, and built for glide, the SS1 transforms open water into a playground. It’s a craft that demands balance and focus, but once you find your line, the feeling is pure freedom.
The first time I caught a bump on a surfski, I couldn’t stop smiling. You accelerate down a swell, link another, and another—and before you know it, you’re flying. The simplicity of it is addictive: just the paddle, the water, and the sound of your glide.
Why paddlers love the SS1
Surfski paddling sharpens your awareness and strengthens your connection to the ocean’s energy. You learn to read wind, chase rhythm, and feel the subtle pull of each bump. For athletes who thrive on challenge and crave downwind runs, few experiences compare.
The surfski’s design rewards precision. Get it right, and you move faster than almost anything on the water. It’s not only about racing—it’s about the thrill of movement, of flow, of learning to harness the sea’s momentum.

Kai Wa‘a
From the same team that builds some of the world’s fastest outriggers, Kai Wa‘a surfskis combine outrigger heritage with cutting-edge surfski design. Built by Ozone, they’re incredibly light, stiff, and reliable in every condition. These skis carry the DNA of ocean racing—crafted for paddlers who want control, glide, and the confidence to take on any swell.
Why it's worth it
The SS1 is more than a fast boat—it’s a teacher. Every paddle stroke gives feedback, every wave invites you to read the ocean better. And when everything clicks, the sense of flow is unlike anything else in paddling.
A high-quality surfski will last years, keep its performance edge, and open new parts of the ocean you didn’t know you could reach. For anyone serious about downwind paddling or open-water endurance, it’s the ultimate craft of self-discovery and speed.
Surfski fits in well here in North Carolina, the home of NASCAR, and the fictional Ricky Bobby summed up why - “I like to go fast!”
