Wave Sport Hydra 145 & 145LV TriFuse

Stiff, Fast, and Responsive TriFuse Touring Kayak

The Wave Sport Hydra 145 and 145LV is one of the most versatile touring kayaks available, giving paddlers superior comfort, confident stability, and high performance. Whether you're looking to cruise across a calm lake, adventure down a local river, or surf along the coastline, the Hydra 145 is a perfect option.

With a good amount of rocker, the Hydra rides high above the waves, boosting your confidence in tidal swells for some proper fun paddling! The hull is designed to provide responsiveness without sacrificing stability, with a flattened centre and sharp edges, helping the kayak feel smooth and balanced when accelerating, turning quickly, and pushing your ability.

Wave Sport's TriFuse Technology improves the construction, combining their top-notch SuperLinear PE (polyethylene) material with foaming PE. This TriFuse layup delivers quicker paddling speeds, more reliable tracking, and increased responsivity, perfectly balancing hull weight and stiffness.

The Hydra comes fitted with the COREtour WhiteOut outfitting, which has proven to be one of the most comfortable and connective designs on the market. The COREtour seat is padded for comfort and features a built-in leg lifter to help the paddler stay engaged with the kayak underneath their legs. The padded backband and thigh braces are also easy to adjust, allowing you to achieve the best connectivity and support, so that you stay in control in challenging conditions.

The deck of the Hydra is fitted with an array of bungee storage lines for attaching paddle britches, deck bags, or other essentials close to hand. There are also two bulkhead storage compartments, each with a secure rubber hatch cover, so you can carry a good amount of gear on your adventures. The stern hatch is large enough to accommodate a Railblaza C-Tug Trolley! Behind the cockpit, the Hydra has two GearTrac rails so that you can mount other accessories, such as an action camera to capture the money shots when you're surfing the big waves!
