Waka Skuxx

The Waka Skuxx is the boat many of you have been waiting for! Shorter than most other half-slice kayaks, the Skuxx surfs even the smallest waves, is incredibly easy to cut under, balances well on its stern, and makes vertical moves – like loops – easier than ever before. And best of all: as befits a true Waka kayak, the Waka Skuxx also performs superbly in whitewater. We've already extensively tested the new river runner and can wholeheartedly recommend it.

In developing the Skuxx, Waka Kayaks based its design on the successful Steeze model, reducing its length, width, and volume. After approximately two years of development and several prototypes, the result is a boat that, in our opinion, sets new standards for river runners.

Do you weigh more than 80kg or need a little more volume for more challenging sections of the river and that extra thrill when kickflipping? Then check out the Waka Skuxx Deluxe . With 10 liters more volume in the tail, it could fulfill all your wishes.

In our blog you can find a review of the first Waka Skuxx and Skuxx Deluxe ever to come out of the rotational mold.

Manufacturer's description

The Skuxx is the addition to the Waka range we've all been waiting for. It's a fast, fun, and short half-slice kayak that's dynamic and agile. Named after the Kiwi slang word with a multifaceted meaning, the Skuxx is also Waka's most versatile boat: downriver freestyle, wave maneuvers and surfing, river trips up to easy Class 5 whitewater, and flatwater tricks—this kayak is a true all-rounder.
The Skuxx's design is based on the Steeze, with width and volume around the cockpit. It has a more specialized surf hull that's super light and responsive. The stern is stable, making flatwater maneuvers and wheelies easier. What also sets the Skuxx apart is that it remains fast, floaty, and comfortable even on Class IV-V whitewater – a great combination.
The Skuxx is suitable for a wide weight range. It rolls easily and is the perfect boat for everyone from beginners to professionals.
This boat is another truly innovative design from the Waka workshop and perfectly matches our vision. The latest addition to the Waka fleet is the Skuxx!
