With the Puffy GOAT, Waka Kayaks brings a highly playful, agile and versatile whitewater kayak to market. Designed as a smaller version of the Puffy Steeze, this river runner stands for maximum fun on the water while still offering serious whitewater capability. Boofs and spins — no problem for the GOAT! It remains easy to control throughout and delights — thanks to its flat hull and defined edges — with very precise handling.
Compared to other kayaks in the Waka fleet, the GOAT is narrower, less bulky and was specifically designed for the needs of lighter paddlers. With a recommended body weight of 45–90 kg, the GOAT appeals not only to light and small kayakers but also covers a very wide weight and size range. At a body weight between 65 and 75 kg, the GOAT puts virtually no limits on you. It can be paddled very controlledly and safely in the heaviest whitewater. The closer your weight gets to the 95 kg threshold, the more aggressive the handling becomes.
Who needs the Waka Puffy GOAT?
Everyone who loves the handling of the standard GOAT but found the flat stern more of a hindrance than an advantage. That means: people who are too light to undercut the GOAT and simply want a super comfortable and pleasant whitewater boat. Also people at the upper end of the recommended weight range who want an extra dose of safety with the thicker stern.
