CANOEING
Canoes involve the paddler kneeling or sitting in a raised position and using a paddle with one blade. Canoes can be paddled on flatwater or
whitewater, though depending on the skill of the paddler, their use may be limited by the open nature of the craft. Due to the single-bladed paddle,
canoeing can be more difficult to learn than kayaking, yet it offers a unique grace and appeal that has continued to draw people to the sport.
Canoes can be used for outings ranging from a few hours to many weeks, and boat styles and designs reflect the intended use. Whitewater canoes
are shorter and tend to have more rocker, while tripping canoes are longer, with less rise from end to end. Tripping canoes also have maximum
space for storage, allowing the transport of food and gear for extended trips. Whitewater canoes are designed for maximum maneuverability and
a higher water line to keep the boat drier while paddling through whitewater rapids. Canoes of both varieties come in solo and tandem models.

NOVA CRAFT - SUPER NOVA
PERFORMANCE
The Supernova was designed as the ideal solution for the paddler
who loves to do solo wilderness river trips. Its hull characteristics do
what you’d expect from a whitewater boat – like keeping you dry and
effortlessly surfing a wave. Where you really appreciate the canoe
is the flatwater sections in between the rapids. The Supernova will
be most appreciated by experienced paddlers who enjoy messing
around in whitewater. Even though it comes to life in the rough stuff,
it retains enough of a quiet nature that it won’t feel out of place for a
casual paddle on the local pond. In the hands of a competent paddler
the Supernova is an excellent dance partner.
