PERFORMANCE MATTERS.
What good is pushing big flows through a smaller hose if it doesn’t actually perform better? That’s exactly what puts the KrakenEXO SUPER II™ in a league of its own. Beyond its size and weight benefits, the SUPER II delivers extremely low friction loss for a 2" hose flowing higher volume.
