“The 2006 Rocker Kayak features Jackson’s new Boat Armour Outfitting!!!The goal behind the Rocker Kayak by Jackson Kayak is to provide a creeking machine that will make your downhill whitewater run as safe and easy as possible. Innovative outfitting that increases rigidity, safety, reduces weight, and increases comfort is in the works. Don’t be fooled by the simple lines. Function determines the form on the Rocker, and the smooth shape of the hull has enough of a chine to carve in and out of eddies without sliding, while allowing you to still slide the boat sideways when flat..Shipping: Please note that the shipping charge above applies to business address deliveries in the 48 states.

“The Necky Chronic is super balanced - whether on the bow or stern, or transitioning between the two, the Chronic slices, bounces or carves into all the moves. With great speed for its length, it surfs and hops into big airs and blunts with ease. Forgiving when setting up for the next move, the Chronic is extremely loose on a green face, shreds holes and turns the flats into a playground. Necky’s unique recoil alloy outfitting creates a light and stiff hull that translates the paddler’s energy directly to the boat. Dial the fit in straight out of the wrapper and go rip the local playspot Necky style.

“The Crux represents Necky’s next evolutionary step in creeking. Long months of tweaking and careful evaluation resulted in a kayak that handles big hydraulics with poise and resurfaces after big drops like a champ. The Crux has surprising speed for its length and punches holes with authority. Shorter, quicker, and more controlled, the Crux still has enough volume for multi-day trips for the hardcore boater.Pictured in cloudburst; e-mail info@rockcreek.com or call 888.707.6708 for color availability.

Your playboating will take a leap forward in the Star.The 2006 model of the Star Kayak includes Jackson’s new Body Armour Outfitting!!!Comfort Jackson Kayak focuses on a simple outfitting plan and ergonomic fit that is friendly to most lower-body types, so you can get in more hours on the water without any grimacing due to discomfort. Durability A cross-linked polyethelene material will keep the boat looking newer longer, and even has memory in case you really crash hard. It will actually return to its original shape if bent with a little heat from the sun or hair d

“The Vision 56 Big Foot Kayak by LiquidLogic is the larger version of the original Vision 56 for those of you who need just a little more foot room. The Vision 56 is the culmination of four years’ design from Shane Benedict. Now LiquidLogic has added 1 inch of room in the foot bumps. This has also added almost 1 gallon to the volume of the boat. The velocity rail, taken from surfboard technology, adds carveability and speed, making the Vision 56 the must have boat for 2006 and beyond.

“The Jefe (Spanish for “”Boss”") Kayak by LiquidLogic is designer Johnnie Kern’s new offering to the hairboating crowd.  LiquidLogic put a lot of energy into the Jefe design and there’s no question it’s one of the most tested creek boats ever produced.”"I wanted to get as much speed as I could out of the hull,”" says Johnnie, “”so when you’re looking over you’re shoulder at a must make move, you know the boat is going to dig in and jump up to speed.”"  Add that speed to Jefe’s stable platform, it’s super-soft bow and innovative stern edges, (which provide predictability and control), and you’ve got a boat that’s ready to eat up anything that you’re willing to throw at it..Shipping: Please note that the shipping charge above applies to business address deliveries in the 48 states.

“Refinement… The Project Kayak 52 by WaveSport is a result of countless hours spent contemplating, visualizing, discussing, experimenting and testing all the little things most people don’t even notice about a kayak. Even the smallest change in chine angle, sidecut profile, volume distribution, rocker profile, and how these variables interact lead to dramatic changes in performance. By taking time to explore the details, WaveSport has discovered new ways to improve how a boat interacts with the water, and you. The Project is a result of their commitment to the art of refinement. It combines a fast, loose hull that hops and carves with a deck profile designed to maximize pop while maintaining fluidity during linked vertical moves. WaveSport has been able to increase comfort for a wider range of paddlers and raise the bar on performance. This project 52 is now complete…
