Biskaya 2.0
Reinventing our classic!
The Biskaya has been the athlete among our sea kayaks since 2011. The particularly fast and slim kayak is manoeuvrable and particularly agile, especially when you make use of the edge - which was child's play then as now thanks to the slim, strongly rounded U-frame. The new Biskaya, which is now available in four instead of three sizes, comes across as a sporty all-rounder more than ever, because the second generation's directional stability has been slightly optimized, which pays off on long tours and journeys, but not at the expense of the agility works. In addition, the stems have been slightly raised, which has a positive effect when surfing and breaking waves.
Take it sporty, try the Biskaya 2.0 - the ultimate all-rounder for training sessions, day trips or travel.

New sizes and new sizing system:
Being slightly more voluminous than the original Biskaya LV the Biskaya 75 is fit for kayaker from 65 kg. Its bigger brother Biskaya 85 is made for people from 75 kg. Because the new sizes didn't allign with our previous sizing system we decided to implement a new sizing system. The number stands for the optimum paddler weight +/- 10 kg.
More wind stability, better surf and still incredibly agile:
Although we were super content with the original Biskaya's directional stability already, especially when packed and trimmed well, we aimed even higher with the new kayak.
More S-Schlag (?), a little more rocker and moving the cockpit more towards the rear made the Biskaya a speed machine that performs incredibly in wind, surfs easily and keeps being controllable and maneuverable on the wave.
Skeg or skudder?
We deicided to offer 3 different Skeg/Skudder options for our Biskaya 2.0.
1. Lettmann Skudder
2012 we launched the Lettmann skudder along with the original Biskaya. It has been an essential part of our sea kayaks eversince. Obviously, the new Biskaya will to be available with the Skudder. It particularly makes sense for beginners and intermediate sea kayakers as it simplifies steering in stressfule situation for the kayaker to foucs on acceleration.
2. Kajaksport Skeg
With the Biskaya 2.0 we expect advanced and professional kayakers to be interested in having a skeg. That's why we decided to offer assembling the Biskaya 2.0 with the Kajaksport Skeg 4.
3. Lettmann Skudder with adapter
The solution for indecisive kayakers! We created an adapter for our skudder that locks the Skeg/Rudder blade in place horizontally. The blade will still be retractable but won't move sidewards eliminating the steering funcition. This adaoter can be mounted and dismounted at anytime and will be available for every Lettmann kayak with a skudder system.

Special safety instructions for the use of canoes and kayaks
- The product is designed to be driven by human power.
- Before setting off, you should check that your equipment is in perfect working order and complete. Ensure that all bolts are tight in the case of sealed boats. If a steering system/skeg system is installed, check that it is working properly. Check the boat hull for damage.
- Mark your boat and important pieces of equipment with your name and contact details so that the material can be assigned to you.
- Equip your boat with the appropriate buoyancy aids. This will not only prevent your boat from sinking, but you can also hold on to it in the event of capsizing until help arrives. Boats with sealed storage compartments or boats that are unsinkable by the manufacturer do not necessarily need to be upgraded. The storage compartments act as buoyancy aids if they are properly closed.
- Kayaks and canoes can be bulky and heavy or unwieldy - get a second person to help you load and carry them and/or use loading aids and a boat trolley.
- The driver of the vehicle is responsible for load safety during transport. Only use authorised means of transport in compliance with the road traffic regulations.
- Never attach a person, an animal or other objects to the canoe/kayak with ropes.
