Introducing the V5 Surfski Generation 2
The most stable surfski in the Epic fleet just got a tune up! If you’re new to performance paddling, the V5 Surfski Generation 2 will allow you to jump on and go in all conditions, from mild to wild. Slightly longer, a touch narrower and lighter than the Gen 1 model, the V5 Gen 2 has an under-hull rudder and no storage hatch, just like our existing V-series surfskis. The excellent stability and hull speed gives beginners and more experienced paddlers alike the confidence to take it downwind, play in the surf zone with ease, and cruise flatwater with comfort and efficiency. The beloved Epic surfski cockpit has been further improved for additional comfort, and aids in proper ergonomic posture, thus enabling the paddler to use a powerful forward stroke. Our signature cutaway front deck design allows a close, efficient catch at the start of every stroke. 

Available in two lightweight composite constructions, the V5 Gen 2 is even easier to carry to and from the water and unload from your car roof rack.

The V5 Surfski Gen 2 comes standard with under hull rudder, adjustable Epic foot brace, bow and stern handles, centre carry handles, rear deck bungees, water bottle holder and Epic’s patented bailer (For kick-up rudder option, see the V5 Tourer).

Introducing the All New V5 Tourer

Designed for superior touring and performance paddling, the V5 Tourer is ideal for paddlers wanting a stable, lightweight, high-performance sit-on-top kayak capable of navigating a wide range of waterways and conditions. Load the rear hatch with gear and head down a shallow river using the over-stern kick up rudder. Or install the under-stern surfski rudder and go for an ocean downwind run! The V5 Tourer comes standard with both rudder options - excellent added value, with minimal modifications needed to change rudders - utilizing a full Epic footboard with steering pedals.

Built with the same hull dimensions as the V5 Surfski Generation 2, the V5 Tourer is an extremely versatile craft with excellent stability and speed that gives beginners and more experienced paddlers alike the confidence to explore their favorite environments with great efficiency.

The seat provides awesome comfort, and supports an ergonomic posture, enabling a powerful forward stroke. Our signature cutaway front deck design allows a close, efficient catch at the start of every stroke. Available in two lightweight composite constructions, the V5 Tourer is easy to carry to and from the water and unload from your car roof rack.

The Epic V5 Rotomoulded  surfski allows beginners to jump on and paddle with confidence and give more experienced paddlers a short, stable surfski to use in big or rough conditions. Sleek lines and Epic’s comfortable surfski cockpit make the V5 perfect to learn downwind paddling and great for playing in the surf zone. 

The V5 roto comes standard with under hull rudder, adjustable foot brace (including pedals that automatically adjust line length), rear storage compartment, bow and stern handles, center carry handles, water bottle holder and Epic’s patented bailer. An optional stern kick up rudder can be added to the Rotomolded version with no modifications needed to allow the V5 to be paddled in shallow or rocky areas.

With a hull design featuring specs of 4.88 m x 58.4 cm, the Epic V6 is unique in its class. It has a surfski cockpit with the storage capacity of a touring kayak. It also has extremely good shallow water capability with the TrackMasterPlus kick up rudder system also borrowed from Epic’s touring kayak range.

Fast, yet extremely stable, this is a surfski/ touring kayak hybrid that almost every paddler should be able master very quickly. The cockpit is the same as the V8 surfski and features a fully adjustable foot brace and a bottle holder. The deck has rear deck bungees, safety lines, and also incorporates bow, stern, and side carry handles. The Epic bailer, breather tube and the patented Trackmaster Plus kick up rudder system are also featured. 

Our goal with the Epic V6 is to provide a boat that bridges the gap between sea kayaks and surfskis. By blending speed, high stability and a performance oriented deck & outfitting, the V6 offers new levels of accessibility and opportunity. Touring kayakers looking to make the transition to high performance surfskis for racing in the Sea Kayak class, or looking for a simple, efficient boat with storage capacity for touring, fitness or the freedom of an open cockpit will be well rewarded with the V6.

Rotomoulded kayaks have traditionally been heavy and difficult to handle, both on and off the water.

The Epic V7 breaks that mold and sets a new standard for rotomold performance. It is lightweight, extremely efficient, and easy to handle. The V7 is outfitted with the same high quality fittings as every surfski in the Epic lineup, including our carbon fiber footboard and pedals and the hugely popular Epic designed bailer. In addition, it features an aft storage compartment with a waterproof hatch that puts the V7 in a class of its own. 

The 17’ x 21” V7 adds a whole new dimension. It offers similar stability to the V8 with the increased durability of a polyethylene kayak. Its capability can be further enhanced with the optional kick up rudder (no modification needed). This combination allows the V7 to be paddled in areas where composites cannot.

The deck features all the surfski simplicity of the V10 and V12, the main components being a fully adjustable footbrace and rear deck bungees. 

The V8 also incorporates some new features that add to its user friendly appeal: molded in bow & stern carry handles, and a water bottle holder in the cockpit. The Epic bailer, breather tube and Epic surfski rudder configurations are standard.

Our goal with the V8 is to provide a boat that bridges the gap between sea kayaks and surfskis. By blending speed, high stability and a performance oriented deck & outfitting, the V8 offers new levels of accessibility and opportunity.

Introducing the All New V8 Tourer
Inspired by the continued worldwide popularity of the Epic V8 Surfski, we have combined the high - performance pedigree of surfski design with elements of traditional kayak touring to create an exciting new hybrid model. For paddlers pushing the boundaries of fitness, touring, recreation, adventure racing and downwind surfing, the V8 Tourer can do it all! With bow and stern cargo hatches, bulkheads, and both over-stern and under-hull rudders included, you can navigate waterways and distances where conventional surfskis cannot.

The volume and depth are slightly greater than the V8 Surfski to handle gear stowage. The V8 Tourer bow shape borrows its profile from the Gen 4 V10 and Gen 3 V12, a very streamlined nose that is less affected by crosswinds and helps the bow rise after punching into a wave. The stern has been optimised for tracking when the over-stern rudder is utilised. Seat width and shape is similar to the much beloved V8 Surfski, while the “hump” in the cockpit has been lowered slightly to accommodate paddlers with shorter leg lengths. The V8 Tourer comes standard with over-stern and under-stern rudder options - excellent added value, with minimal modifications needed to change rudders - and utilises a full Epic footboard with steering pedals.

The open cockpit design of the V8 Tourer offers many advantages over a traditional closed-deck kayak. Safety, simplicity, comfort and ergonomics – all combine to boost your technique so you can enjoy your time on the water with ease and reach your destination with less effort. The V8 Tourer represents an exciting new development in Epic’s touring range. Take your paddling to the next level!

The V8 Tourer comes standard with the following: front and rear carbon fibre hatch covers, bulkheads fore and aft, stern kickup rudder and uphaul line, optional under hull rudder, adjustable Epic foot brace, bow and stern handles, centre carry handles, rear deck bungees, water bottle holder and Epic’s patented bailer.

The V8 Pro is the perfect boat for those who want a performance upgrade from our popular V8 or a high performance ski that is a bit more stable than the V10 Sport. In terms of speed and stability, the V8 Pro fits perfectly between the Epic V8 and the V10 Sport.

The V8 Pro includes the same great outfitting features of the V8, including the bow, stern and center carry handles, water bottle holder, and the patented Epic bailer.​

The V8 Pro will fit paddlers from 4’10” to 6’5” in height. The reduced hump under knees will be appreciated by smaller paddlers. Taller paddlers between 6’5” and 6’7” will be better suited in the V8 or V10 Sport.

Surfskis are no longer unstable racing craft capable of being paddled only by professional athletes. Most levels of paddler can get onto a V8 DOUBLE and paddle proficiently from the first day.

​Newbies will appreciate the way they can jump on and go without spending their first sessions bracing or capsizing. The V8 Double gives intermediate paddlers the confidence to venture out into more adventurous conditions - Surf’s up! Experts will enjoy showing their non-paddling friends or relatives the thrill of surfski paddling. The V8 Double is also the perfect vehicle for parents to introduce surfski to their kids.

 The Epic V8 double is easy to carry with side handles at each cockpit in addition to bow & stern handles. The front cockpit accommodates paddlers from 5’0” to 6’7” in height, while the rear cockpit will fit those from 4’10” to 6’5” tall.

 Speed, stability, agility.

The V9 has it all in spades. The latest entry to the Epic surfski line up can take you to new and exciting places you’ve only dreamed of: downwind surfing, open-ocean crossings, challenging races, fitness sessions, or just plain fun.  Decades of experience in advanced hull designs have produced the most versatile surfski on the water! At 19’ x 19”, the V9 was designed by Epic’s founder and chief designer, Greg Barton, to fill a sweet spot between the V8 Pro and V10 Sport. Like the Gen 3 V10, the V9 has been optimized for downwind surfing, with increased rocker, and stability. Flatwater speed is a step up from the V8 Pro due to the slightly narrower beam. This is the boat many paddlers have been waiting their whole lives for – the one that launches you onto the swells, glides efficiently across the water, and keeps you in the “zone”.

The comfort of Epic surfskis is legendary. We believe that better comfort leads to greater performance. If you’re not comfortable in the boat, nothing else matters! The seat ergonomics of the V9 are superb, incorporating the shape of the Gen 3 V10 seat, with a lower “hump” under the knees for improved leg power. The cockpit configuration, with the fully adjustable Epic footboard, accommodates paddlers from 4’11 to 6’6” tall (1.5 to 1.99 m). Our popular side carry handles make it a breeze to carry solo. 

The V9 also comes with Epic’s revolutionary high-volume bailer system. The bailer can be completely closed for flat or cold water environments, and has four adjustable positions depending on the conditions, from mild to wild. It can be easily operated with your foot so you never miss a stroke.

Decades of experience in the making, by arguably one of the world’s best designers, the V9 is the boat we have all been waiting for!

Advanced performance, phenomenal comfort, and cutting-edge design. These elements define the all-new Gen 4 V10. The Epic V10 ignited a revolution in surfski design when introduced in 2005 and the newest version continues the legendary performance on the water thanks to innovative R&D and two decades of experience in the rapidly evolving world of ocean surfski racing.  We added features of the latest Epic V12 that paddlers rave about into the newest V10, creating a more user-friendly model that allows more people to excel and experience the thrill of surfski paddling. Sharing the unique bow shape of the Gen 3 V12, the Gen 4 V10 surfs like a dream, rising up after slicing into a wave, and is less affected by cross winds. With the streamlined bow and a greater rocker profile, the new V10 gives the best downwind performance of the V10 series yet! 

Stability has improved over previous V10 versions, giving you full confidence to apply power in downwind conditions – essential for taking another stroke and catching the wave of the day! Improved seat ergonomics put the paddler in a more upright position while the lower hump height allows more effective leg drive. The seat width is similar to the Gen 3 V10, giving just enough hip room for those that need it, while still keeping you well-centered in the bucket. 

As Epic’s legacy surfski model, the V10 continues to evolve and make waves around the world. We have created a unique, nimble boat for advanced/intermediate skilled paddlers that doesn’t require elite level stability skills. Take your paddling to the next level with the Gen 4 V10. 

The Gen 4 V10 will fit paddlers approximately 5’2” in height to 6’8”.  The foot brace extends longer than previous V10 model and can accommodate paddlers with long legs better than any other surski in the Epic lineup!

The Twist is an all-new paddle series created by Epic to give maximum efficiency for experienced paddlers. The unique shape of the Twist blade provides an aggressive, clean catch, and extremely efficient stroke with a very stable feel in the water. The first paddle introduced in the series, the Mid Twist, grabs the water effectively like a blade with greater surface area – thanks to the enhanced efficiency.

With several years in development and testing, the result is a totally unique, original paddle blade design. The Twist blade enters close to the boat during the catch phase, then flows outward naturally during the power phase of the stroke and exits smoothly. No additional effort is required to create optimal flow of the paddle.

The Mid Twist is a mid-size paddle suitable for the majority of surfski and fitness paddlers, looking for the next step in their progression to increased performance. 

The Twist is a dramatic step forward, when you have a look at one, you will see how different it is, once you paddle with one you will know. Try the Mid Twist and decide for yourself!

The Epic Small Mid Wing paddle is based on our award winning Mid Wing paddle, with a 2% reduced blade surface area. This slightly trimmed-down design has broadened the appeal of the wing paddle, making it ideal for smaller paddlers, cruisers and racers paddling long distances, and those who simply seek a smaller option to maximize their efficiency.

The Epic Deck Pad assists you with extra traction/extra support for your ski. Often placed near the bungee cords to protect the deck against scratching from your paddle or other items being stored, the deck pad can also be used on the footwell for comfort or indeed anywhere on the deck where you may want some protection / grip.

Sized at 30cm x 30cm, it is easily applied to the ski with 3M adhesive backing tape so it's ready to peel and install without any fuss.

Use our seat pads for comfort or stack them to speed the transition to a narrower boat.

Our removable seat pads are made from 6.5mm (1/4”) thick closed cell foam. This allows for proper rotation in the boat, while adding comfort. 

Our new ergonomic Back Pad for Epic surfskis is made of closed-cell foam and attaches to the seat with a velcro strap. The contoured shape is designed to provide lower back support for paddlers desiring additional comfort while still allowing freedom of movement.

 Some surfski paddlers tend to 'slouch' in the seat, and the Epic Back Pad acts as an anti-slouch device! The pad is approximately 1" thick at the top and tapers down. It can also allow our shorter paddlers to better reach the pedals.

Install - Align the top edge of the Back Pad with the highest point of the rear of the cockpit where it is still vertical - just as the seat shape breaks backward for the comfortable 'lean back' cutaway.

 If you plan to remove the entire pad and velcro at some point, you should try to first attach a strip of pipe wrap tape to the rear of the cockpit first, and then attach the self-adhesive velcro to that.

*Remove pad from the seat when transporting at high speeds.

Epic Kayaks Non Slip Foot Pad. Feel comfortable at all times with some extra padding at your footboard. 

For V5, V8, V8 Pro, V9, V10, V10L, V10 Sport, V11, V12 and double Surf Skis.

Paddling in big water?

The Epic Surf Rudder has a much bigger blade surface and deeper purchase and offers superb traction and control in big wind and waves.

Please note there are variants of the rudder that you order. Our skis have different rudder lengths per ski so to avoid receiving the incorrect rudder for your ski, please check that you have selected the correct option. 

Perfect leash for races, for a quick-release at the end of the race. Coil leash attaches just below the knee.

The Deluxe Leg Leash is equipped with a quick-release carabiner. This is a valuable feature for paddlers, as you typically do not want to be attached to your boat in larger shore break conditions.

We recommend that you always use a leash! In strong winds, our lightweight boats can blow away from you faster than you can swim. Practice your remounts while wearing your leash(es) so there are no surprises when you are forced to remount.

Please note: these leashes are designed for use in races for the quick release carabiner and are not guaranteed to stay connected under extreme tension, or in extreme conditions. 

There are 4 different colour options, unless specified in notes when you purchase at check out, the product will be selected at random. Colours are; Black, Grey, Aqua and Olive. Colours are great as you can easily identify them. 

Lightweight and extremely tough, with a small profile.

Perfect for staying connected to your boat and/or hanging onto your paddle! The Paddle Leash attaches to your paddle shaft allowing you to keep track of your paddle in case you lose grip or require both hands to remount.

Always use a leash! In strong winds, our lightweight boats can blow away from you faster than you can swim. Practice your remounts while wearing your leash(es) so there are no surprises when you are forced to remount.

Epic hip pads attach to the side of the seat to provide a more snug and custom fit.

For better stability and control, the pouches contain three layers of foam, which can be added or removed as needed for personal fit.

The Epic Weed Deflector helps shed weed and seagrass. Offered in two sizes, our weed deflectors are very helpful if you paddle in an area prone to weed. 

Is seaweed slowing you down? Epic’s Weedless Rudder for the V-Series surfskis is the answer. 

Combined with our carbon weed deflector (included in your purchase), the weedless rudder is designed to shed seaweed and prevent those irritating hang-ups during your training session or race.

Please note there are variants of the rudder that you order. Our skis have different rudder lengths per ski so to avoid receiving the incorrect rudder for your ski, please check that you have selected the correct option.
