Břeclav, October 15, 2019 - The new RUSH kayak from the company Gumotex in Břeclav won the Product of the Year award in the category of recreational products at Europe's largest paddling trade fair, Paddle Expo. The kayak attracted both jurors and visitors to the contracting trade fair mainly thanks to the production technology used, and the construction ensuring perfect stability, first-class riding characteristics, versatility of use and, last but not least, environmental friendliness. After last year's victory with the THAYA kayak at the same trade fair, this repeated victory, in such a prestigious competition, is a huge success for the Czech company.

There was a problem with Drop-Stitch material coating technology, so we developed our own. How did we do it?

The new THAYA kayak from GUMOTEX is the new king of inflatable boats. From the largest European watersports trade fair traditionally held in German Nuremberg, the Thaya arrived home to the Czech Republic with gold medal aboard. The new product took first place in the Paddlesport Product of the Year Awards. It impressed the jury with its new technology that delivers perfect stability, improves driving characteristics and is environmentally friendly.

If you browsed our website, you might be at least a fan of paddling sports and inflatable boats are probably well-known products to you. However, few people know that the company GUMOTEX produces its boats from the materials that are not made from PVC but from natural or synthetic rubber.
