Galasport Gorilla C1

C1 Gorilla was developed under supervision of Sideris Tasiadis (Germany), one of world‘s most successful canoist in recent years. As a basis for development our popular boat Pink & Yellow was used. Main changes were made around the bow and stern hull areas, making these more round.
The boat kept its amazing stability but improved in turning speed. Back behind the cockpit some changes had been made in the volume distribution in order to not lose speed in forward motion and jumping over waves and holes and stay flat on the water without stern‘s sinking effect.
We make Gorilla in senior and junior sizes.

CARBOLIGHT
Our highest quality racing boat. This lay-up is for the most demanding slalom racers, addressing not only performance but also appearance. We use a combination of 3 types of foam core, MGS epoxy system and superior vacuum bag technology. A carbon surface is laid over a durable carbon/kevlar combination inside the boat. Although seamless on the outside (except for the bow and stern tips for extra protection), it has double seams on the inside. With this new improved construction, we bring to the market a very strong boat with good resistance to damage.
