Stoke Description
The Stoke enhances some favourite features from Waka’s classic designs. Retaining most of the Steeze’s bow shape and design with only a slight taper in width, it also offers a nimble low-profile OG-style stern. The result is a hybrid that combines elements of a true steep creeker with a big half slice-style river runner. The Stoke offers an intuitive and effortless paddling experience you need to experience firsthand to fully appreciate.

Key Features
Easy to adjust outfitting
Strong but fast adjustment to our outfitting ensures it caters to everyone from schools to experts. It has three screw holes under the hip pads on seat tab, just loosen two screws and the seat will slide forward and backwards.
Hip Pads
Shaped pads are included that attach to the seat with Velcro. Additionally, they come with two straps that secure around the seat to prevent them from coming loose during a swim.
Back-band
Two ratchets and ladders makes it easy to adjust and tighten, and can be adjusted even more by altering the length of webbing on the back of the back-band. It has also been mounted to allow for easy access to your safety equipment or overnight gear stored behind the seat.
Thigh braces
Simple, light weight, and most importantly very effective, the thigh braces in the Stoke have purposely been left longer for extra knee grip. If you find this is too much or want easier exiting from your boat you can easily trim the braces down 5mm-10mm (preferably with a rasp).
Foot-block
The foot-block is fully adjustable thanks to four thumb-nuts on the inside of the hull. The width of the foot-block is also adjustable, depending on the position of the foot block.
