Description
Epic V8 Gen 3 Surfski – From $5,400
After almost 16 years at the top of its class, the surfski that changed the game has been redesigned – the new Generation 3 V8 is here!
We have taken everything that made the V8 famous worldwide and updated it to incorporate literally hundreds of thousands of hours of on-water experience, customer feedback and design technologies to incorporate into one new & very special boat, that we hope will set the standard for many years to follow.
We have taken the existing fast yet extremely stable current V8 and made it even faster. The design attributes of this ski now incorporate all the latest learnings from the Epic design team, including that sleek bow design.
Now with a seamless finish and two new construction lay-ups, this ski is sure to turn heads and put many smiles on paddlers.
Looking for a ski most can hop in and paddle from day one – or at least develop your skills in flat, harbour or ocean conditions – look no further.
We have taken all the components you know and love about Epics (including but not limited to; the port/starboard handles, bow & stern handles, Epic footplate system etc) and incorporated these attributes on an entirely new design.
By blending speed, high stability and a performance oriented deck & outfitting, the V8 offers even higher levels of accessibility and opportunity for paddlers.
The Best Part? We didn’t touch the DNA. It retains the exact same legendary stability and comfort that has made the V8 the world’s favourite surfski for beginners and seasoned pros alike.
