I tried to check the designers web-site (www.kajaksport.fi) but no response. I think
they started importing kayaks more seriously to USA only at the time of the first
review. 

Personally, I am a little bit embarrassed about seeing kind of "oversized" models, but I
am a smallish tiny middle-aged Finn... Maybe there is a strategy there, perhaps? A
hamburger-kayaker-strategy? The teenagers seem to be getting taller & taller every year
;-)
