The Remix XP is an extension of Liquid Logic’s popular river runner series, and although its roots are firmly planted in whitewater, the XP’s extended waterline allows it to cruise the flats with ease.
The XP has an integral skeg which when deployed offers superb tracking, but with the skeg tucked away the XP offers the agility needed to excel on whitewater.
By adding additional width to the hull, they achieved the stability wanted even when loaded to the gills with camping gear. The next challenge was speed and tracking for the folks that would use it primarily on lakes and calm rivers, and as we all know whitewater boats just don’t want to go straight on flatwater and will tend to veer right or left.
Speed was achieved by extending the length and waterline of the XP and by dropping the rocker profile slightly, which allows it to really cut through the flats.
To fix that nagging veer, a spring loaded skeg was added.
Camping? There is nothing more satisfying than doing a self-support camping trip out of a kayak. Most whitewater kayaks are hard to camp out of. The XP eliminates the pushing and tugging of gear by offering a dry storage compartment that is easily accessed through its large ‘backcess’ hatch. Easy on and off, the hatch is stiff, lightweight, and dry. The storage compartment can easily hold a week’s worth of camping gear.
Summary: If you’re looking for an all around go anywhere kayak that is comfortable, safe and easy to paddle look no further than the Remix XP. LL spared no expense in designing this true ‘Crossover’ kayak so that you can have the time of your life.
Note: The Remix XP series comes standard with adjustable foot pegs.
