With a wide weight range, the Kush is sweet for paddlers 80kg and above. Sharing the same proven hull design as the DRX, it delivers effortless direction changes at speed, unbeatable skip over holes and drops, smooth wave surfing, flat spins, and powerful carving.

The smaller creek boat out of the Dragorossi fleet, designed for paddlers from 50-75kg.

The DRS is a modern whitewater kayak designed to keep you charging with confidence on New Zealand’s toughest rivers. With a fast, responsive hull and just the right amount of rocker, the DRS punches through waves, carves into eddies, and stays predictable in pushy water. Soft, forgiving edges in the bow prevent those annoying edge-catches, while the stern has enough bite to snap you into eddies and surf with precision.

Whether you’re running big volume or steep creeks, the DRS is all about control, stability, and fun. Comfortable outfitting keeps you locked in for all-day missions, and the durable construction means it’s ready for season after season of hard paddling.

The DRX is built for paddlers who want the perfect blend of speed, stability, and playfulness on the river. With a sleek yet forgiving design, this kayak charges through big water while still giving you the control to carve technical lines with confidence.

The softened front edges prevent those frustrating edge catches, keeping your ride smooth and predictable—even in pushy water. At the same time, they’re sharp and responsive enough to let you rip in and out of eddies with ease, ultimately pushing your paddling abilities.

The DRX is 9 foot long, meaning that it is very fast and have the perfect amount of rocker (especially in the nose), that they will skim out of drops very well, and carry that speed.

Whether you’re learning to paddle grade 2, lapping up the Kaituna or running remote rivers in the South Island, the DRX delivers the performance you need for New Zealand’s diverse whitewater and ultimately helping you push yourself and progress in whitewater kayaking faster.
