The Mini series have been designed for young paddlers under the age of 13. For those who are about to meet the discipline of canoe sprint. Mini C1 is the best choice to learn the principles of flaw water racing, improve technique, posture and stability before changing to C1 canoes. These boats are stable enough and scaled down to match their size.

A complete series of kayak single (Mini K1 / MK-1), kayak double (Mini K2 / MK-2), kayak four (Mini K4 / MK-4) and canoe single (Mini C1 / MC-1) are available for junior trainers and coaches of kayak schools to pass the spirit to the new generation.

Mini kayaks and canoes were established in Hungary more than half a century ago, and since then they have been produced in large numbers by domestic manufacturers. They have always been an integral part of the successful development of youth sports. There are currently hundreds of Mini boats out there, mostly at clubs.

In 2016 the Hungarian Canoe Federation introduced the standardization of all Mini boats used in its competition system including all regattas held by the Federation. The goal behind is to ensure equal opportunities for children & clubs by excluding unhealthy rivalry for better equipment which would lead to inequality of opportunity, disproportion and enmity.

The standardization covers the bow & stern, the hull shape and the weight of the fully equipped boat. The shape, size & position of the rudder (& fin) is also defined. None of these can be a factor affecting performance. The Federation publishes the detailed technical description of each boat model. This description includes:

• Main dimensions of the boat: maximum length (LOA), beam, minimum weight
• Dimensions & drawings of bow, stern, keel & cross sections
• Dimension & drawings of the rudder
• Material used for construction

Manufacturers have to guarantee that the boat they produce meets these standards. This must be certified by a "conformity label" placed in the boat.
