Aim

Win a one-off Palm×Hobson Eclipse kayak raising funds for the Whitewater Paddler Memorial Trust.


The Prize

To celebrate 25 years of Palm rotomoulding, we’ve built something truly special: a unique Palm × Hobson Eclipse surf kayak, custom-moulded in a one-off anniversary colour scheme, featuring exclusive 25-year graphics, and fitted with Hobson’s Carbon Lite outfitting for a lighter, stiffer, sharper ride.

A one-of-a kind surf kayak – and it could be yours!

The Cause

Every contribution helps launch the Whitewater Paddler Memorial Trust (WPMT), a new community-led charitable organisation created in memory of paddlers we’ve lost – including British whitewater kayaker Bren Orton, whose passion and influence inspired the Trust's formation.

WPMT will support the paddling community through safety, education, experience-building and positive river culture.
All net proceeds from this draw will be donated to the Whitewater Paddler Memorial Trust as soon as it becomes operational.

About the Prize — A One-Off Palm × Hobson Custom Eclipse

This is a one-of-a-kind collaboration between Palm Equipment and Hobson kayaks.

The winner will receive:

  • A custom-moulded Eclipse surf kayak
  • One-off anniversary colour scheme, featuring exclusive 25-year graphics
  • Fitted with Hobson Carbon light outfitting
  • RRP £1,690 (£1,295 kayak, £395 outfitting)

There is no cash alternative, and this is the only kayak of its kind – it will never be produced again.

About the Whitewater Paddler Memorial Trust

WPMT will support three areas:
Experience – opportunities and challenges on the water
Skills – developing knowledge and safety
 Inspiration – fostering a connected, positive paddling community

Your support helps launch this important initiative for the paddling community, by the paddling community.

❤️ Thank You

Your support not only gives you the chance to win something truly special, but also helps launch a charity created for the paddling community, by the paddling community.
