Wave Sport Horizon + Rudder: A premium two-person kayak for every adventure
Horizon: Safety and Space for Two
The Wave Sport Horizon is a two-person kayak designed to meet the demands of any adventure on the water. Whether you’re setting out on a short expedition on a lake or planning a longer trip with plenty of gear, the Horizon is ready to accompany you. The kayak’s appearance and features inspire a sense of security. The comfortable cockpit offers a cozy seating area for all-day paddling, while the stable design responds quickly and effectively to your movements. The sturdy bow allows for easy maneuvering even in choppy waves.
Design and Hydrodynamics: Superlinear Polyethylene and Stability
The hull shape and materials used ensure a long service life and predictable handling on the water:
- Superlinear polyethylene: A highly durable material that ensures a long service life and resistance to damage, impacts, and UV radiation—all while weighing a reasonable 36 kg.
- High load capacity: With a maximum load capacity of 280 kg, the Horizon is the ideal choice for two adult riders with a full set of expedition gear.
- Optimized width: The 76-cm width ensures excellent initial stability, so you'll feel confident on the boat even when loading gear or in light swells.
Features: Comfortable seating and watertight bulkheads
Wave Sport makes sure you get out of the water feeling refreshed and with dry clothes:
- Sliding, padded seats: The ergonomic seats with foam backrests can be adjusted lengthwise, allowing the boat to be perfectly tailored to riders of different builds for maximum comfort.
- Waterproof partitions: The bulkheads at the bow and stern of the kayak separate the storage compartments from the cockpit and provide ample space for both paddlers' gear, which will stay dry even if the kayak capsizes.
- Practical details: Padded thigh rests, a sliding footrest system, flexible netting at the bow and stern, a safety perimeter rope, and ergonomic handles for easy transport.
- Integrated rudder: The foot-operated rudder control system significantly improves maneuverability and control of the boat, especially when fully loaded or in a crosswind.
Suitable Activities and Uses on the Water
Horizon is a great companion for:
- A multi-day expedition for two: With its massive storage space and 280 kg load capacity, it can handle all the gear you need for a demanding trek.
- Boat Tours on Lakes and Reservoirs: Where it is necessary to cover long distances effectively as a pair with minimal effort.
- Gentle coastal cruises: Thanks to its rudder, watertight bulkheads, and sturdy bow, the boat can handle even moderate swells in more open waters.
About the Wave Sport Brand: An American Legend
The American company Wave Sport is synonymous with innovation, extreme durability, and cutting-edge design in the world of kayaking. Their kayaks are made from highly durable polyethylene, designed to withstand even the harshest conditions on the water. When you choose Wave Sport, you’re choosing proven American quality that pushes the boundaries of what you can experience on the water.
Caring for a Polyethylene Shell
The hull is made of high-quality superlinear polyethylene. To maximize its service life, we recommend storing the kayak away from constant direct UV exposure (ideally under a roof or a tarp). After a trip, especially at sea, rinse the kayak thoroughly with fresh water. Regularly check the seals on the watertight bulkheads, the condition of the drain valves, and the rudder mechanism, which you should lubricate with silicone spray from time to time.

Expert advice: In a two-person kayak, synchronization is the key to an efficient and enjoyable ride. Coordinate your paddling rhythm with your partner—this will keep the boat moving straight and efficiently without veering off course unnecessarily. A rudder makes it much easier to stay on course, especially when the kayak is fully loaded or there’s a crosswind. Learn to control it smoothly with your feet, without any sudden movements. Use the watertight bulkheads to smartly distribute gear between both paddlers so that the boat is optimally balanced. Before every longer trip, check the hatch seals and make sure the rudder lines are properly tensioned.
