Caiman products and service are of a quality and performance standard that really make it possible to be absolutely confident on the start line of any competition.

no.: 100, K1 SALSA 350

for riders up to 70 kg

the newest Salsa has high presumption to win on MS 2009 in Spanish Seu, the base is the very asked and world's successful Torero, Salsa is live like the beautiful Latin dance and his name in extenso will deserves! But compared to the Torero the Salsa markedly took in on the speed and accuracy! Tests approximate to an ideal and the excellent Italian kayaker Daniele Molmenti and next top riders, that meanwhile I can't name, do not praise this top model without consequence for nothing. We will see ourselves!

no.: 103, K1 SALSITA 350

for riders up to 60-62 kg

the Salsita is the smaller version up to the newest Salsa with little smaller draft, its designed for kayakers with smaller weight, for women, juniors and it turned out that for young beginners also. Salsita goes pretty fast, which makes it possible a smaller width in the floating line, but on forward and rotatory strokes it reactives effectively and without any difficulties. This model already ejected older models the Cadetto and the Rebel, so we do no more produce these two models yet.
