ZEGUL 530 is definitely not for beginners, but rather for advanced and dedicated paddlers. Zegul 530 is easy to turn and maneuver, fast, easy to roll, and enjoyable to paddle, just like the other Zegul kayaks. This is the kayak for those who want to feel safe while paddling but still want to have fun and enjoy the speed.

This kayak model is available in two different construction methods:

Carbon/aramide – this very versatile construction is built using vacuum technology, which ensures the best weight/strength ratio. This material lay-up increases durability and stiffness of the kayak, absorbing even less energy during paddling and withstanding the most challenging environments. All carbon/aramide built kayaks are equipped with sandwich reinforced keel area - ensuring scratch and impact strength. Hull and deck are joined using internally both fiberglass and carbon taping, externally a very robust aramide taping. All decks are built in sandwich construction.

Full-carbon – kayaks built with this method are finished with a clear carbon hull, which takes years of experience to be done correctly. This production method combines vacuum infusion technology with high performance properties of marine grade epoxy resin and several types of carbon fiber, carbon/aramide and glass multiaxial fabrics to create the very high-end product. These kayaks are even more versatile than the regular carbon/aramide construction built kayaks using full sandwich lay-up in the kayak hulls. Decks are built out of sandwich construction reinforced with carbon/aramide technology.
