Win a one-off Palm×Hobson Eclipse kayak raising funds for the Whitewater Paddler Memorial Trust.
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!
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.
Each contribution to this Crowdfunder buys you entries into the draw.

The winner will receive:
There is no cash alternative, and this is the only kayak of its kind – it will never be produced again.
The Whitewater Paddler Memorial Trust (WPMT) is being created in memory of paddlers we’ve lost, as a community-driven grant-maker supporting the future of whitewater paddling. It honours their legacy by helping others grow, learn and experience the sport they loved.
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.
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.
Good luck – and thank you for being part of this milestone year for Palm Equipment.
