Racing footpumps

Racing footpumpsWe offer two foot pump options to get the water out of your boat as you paddle. These can either be factory fitted, or retro fitted at home. The single pump is most suitable for K1 and includes one large 15cm rubber pump, along with all the tubing, inlets and valves youll need to get the job done. This weighs approximately 310g. The double pump uses smaller 12cm pumps and includes all the bits you need to set them up to work in series or parallel.

We offer two foot pump options to get the water out of your boat as you paddle. These can either be factory fitted, or retro-fitted at home.

The double pump uses smaller 12cm pumps and includes all the bits you need to set them up to work in series or parallel. This weighs 450g and is generally considered to be the better option as it pumps more effectively as you leg drive. It is very fiddly to fit in the front and will interfere with footrest making it harder to adjust, but is a compromise most performance paddlers are willing to take. If you buy a kit, we’ll throw in some illustrations so you can see the options available, and choose the best for you.
