The board is light as a feather and when paddling, especially when accelerating and turning, you simply feel the lower inert mass. One step backwards, pull a bow stroke with the paddle and the bow rotates almost "mass-free". The pointed nose and stretched outline emphasise the sporty impression. There's no question that the CruisAir LE is one of the more sporty fitness models, even if it loses the last few tenths of a kilometre per hour in the flat water sprint compared to the narrower candidates thanks to its significantly raised nose and 31 mm width. On the other hand, the JP garnishes the sporty feeling with good, stable touring qualities.

Highlights Lightweight; particularly stable in this class
