Genius CLK was created by richardh
I've had a quick paddle in a demo ski and plan to again when time permits.

Has anyone any comments?

Awesome ski. Outstanding build quality. You won't be disappointed with this ski. It is more for a beginner & not for very tall people though. If you're an intermediate paddler & tall, look at the BLU or G40 also by Knysna racing.

A ski for all, or a ski for small?

There are a few comments on the Swordfish thread that most of the Genius skis are for smaller paddlers. Is the CLK designed/best for smaller paddlers?

Just to clarify...
The GENiUS range started with the G20 which was a racing boat aimed at the smaller framed serious paddler.
All the other boats in the range, which include the CLK (entry to lower intermediate), the BLU(intermediate), and the G40 (full size racing) and the G42(for two)racing double have been aimed at ALL paddlers, not just the small framed...

Thanks STEEL, that's what I thought, but it's nice to have confirmation.

Great ski for beginners and have had a few test it out and they get going immediately. It is also a great ski for the older or larger intermediate paddler.Faster then a Fenn xt but just as stable. If anyone would like to try the CLK look out for the Genius ski,s before the the Varsity College Race at Marine on Friday and come and try it.

So why would this ski be good for "older people"?

So old people are fat ? I don't think you should be paddling a boat called the Genius.

Hi Rob.

Have you had a chance to get into the CLK?
How is it going in your intermediate boat evaluation.

Thanks.

See the Genius Clk in the middle and how spacious it is. The the Blu (intermediate racer) on one side and the G20 for smaller paddler on the other.
