Classic Simple Value

Our Performance layup uses a Kevlar/Diolen weave to add a touch more impact resistance over our Classic layup, as well as give a pleasing golden shimmer to the inside of the kayak. This is also the entry point to P&H Custom, and presents great value with the option to select from our full range of options.
