No press release enviado por Hantan Eades, autor do modelo desenhado:

DBxclusive are excited to announce the launch of their second surf kayak: the Fusion 7’7. Nathan Eades designer of the Fusion 7’7, had this to say about his new creation: Dave and Myself have been listening carefully to the feedback from the original Fusion and as this is a kayak for the people we’ve based the 7’7 on this feedback and my own findings. We gave it more length to carry more speed through the slower sections of a wave and make it a kayak that suits more surfing conditions and abilities. We softened the rails along the length of the 7’7 to make it more forgiving as you come down after smashing the lip and made the front slightly narrower so that you can make a tighter bottom turn to carry speed up to the lip. I had mixed feedback about the extruded rail on the original Fusion; people liked it but it caught some surfers out right at the front, so we took it away at the front making the boat less aggressive and instead the rail comes in 30cm back from the front. The performance advantages are still present. I’m really pleased with the result, a much faster kayak which pulls off all the difficult moves easily and hits air like it is a basic manoeuvre!
