“The Dagger Nomad continues the tradition of high quality creek boats with the unmatched safety features and rock-solid design that has made all of them winners. This time Dagger busted out two different sizes so anyone, big or small, can get a piece of the action. We’ve added some length to better handle big water and downriver bombing, but it’s still short and quick enough to bounce down the hairball runs so don’t tell your mom about it. A Flipswitch™ backband gives you no compromises on fit and support, and makes getting in and out a simple affair. There are a full six rescue attachment points, two of which are mounted at an angle just behind the cockpit for easy reach while seated, and so your buddy has a great place to hang on when you’re delivering him from an out-of-boat experience..Shipping: Please note that the shipping charge above applies to business address deliveries in the 48 states.

This new boat gives more hull speed, a signature volume distribution in its deck, a hull designed to pop from the water and edges designed to allow a paddler to drive across a wave. Added to the outstanding hull design is a new outfitting system that is a truly light weight, performance-oriented platform with new hull stiffening rail– designed to provide paddler control and increased hull performance. Finally, the Dagger team has partnered with Immersion Research to create an Overthruster plate for dialing in the Crazy 88’s volume to get the best Air possible.

“The Mamba 8.5 is the largest member of Dagger’s new river running series. The Mamba provides confidence found in a hull that is easy to roll, performs crisp eddy turns, provides REAL hull speed and has outstanding initial stability. A great kayak design to open the doors for new paddlers– or for more advanced boaters, a design that tackles technical big water. The Mamba 8.5 has a light outfitting system that allows the paddler to create a perfect fit that provides consistent performance and control. Note: Mamba 8.0 is pictured in Yellow; the Mamba 8.5 is slightly larger than the 8.0, and colors are available as noted above..Shipping: Please note that the shipping charge above applies to business address deliveries in the 48 states.
