"Some of the most exciting sea kayaks to hit the market in 2012 originate from the other side of the pond.

SeaBird Designs is proud to announce that Robin Feloy, creator of the Inuk, has joined our designer team.

Anders Nyholm is an ex sailing athlete from Roskilde, Denmark. He's won several national championships, the Nordic championship, the Europe Cup and participated in the Olympics in Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008.

After he finished his sailing career in 2010, he couldn't stay away from water for long and bought his first kayak. Instantly he knew that kayaking was just the thing he needed to stay in shape as well as to enjoy beautiful adventures on the water. In a year he already wanted to take longer trips and SeaBird Designs H2O caught his eye with its modern design, construction quality and strength.

Belgian explorer and adventurer Louise-Philippe Loncke, who is mainly known of his solo expeditions on dry land, took a SeaBird Designs H20 for "a little spin" aka BelgiKayak expedition.

We are pleased to announce that Dave Kruger has recently joined SeaBird Designs team as Director of Technology and Manufacturing. Dave will be an invaluable addition to our company as we continue to grow in depth and scope.

My paddle story

I lost my legs two years ago in a worksite accident. I was lucky I survived. Today I am left with two stumps, ending mid-thigh, something that has made it difficult to have good prosthetics made. At Sunnaas, a rehabilitation centre, I learned to be self-sufficient in a wheelchair. I have a car that has been adapted, and that has helped me reclaim a more independent life.
