The upcoming World Freestyle Kayak Championships on Garburator Wave in Canada has fueled our desire to make the ultimate wave surfing machine. We have completed this mission and are now rolling out our best freestyle kayak to date by far, the new Rock Star! A narrower, faster, looser, easier to take off hull is the platform that everything is built on. Easy Edge to edge transfers that are reminiscent of the 2010 All-Star/Super Star, combined with massive air capabilities and smooth, predictable surfing makes it a ridiculously fun boat to paddle on a wave. We took extra time in the development of this deck as well to make sure that we had a rock solid knee position, and increased performance for moves in holes and flatwater. The ends of this boat are slicey and easy to get under the water, making cartwheels, stalls, and linking moves together easier than ever before. Play boating in general will be a joy if you are just learning your first tricks, or you want to win the next World Championships, or just show off to friends. I have not been this excited about a playboat in a long time. It is our...

Kids have often asked us, "how come grown ups get all cool stuff on their fishing kayaks!?" Well, young anglers, we've listened and just like we did with our kids whitewater kayak line we have made a specific model for those energetic lighter weight anglers - the Skipper. We often noticed that kids were kayak fishing in shorter, adult-width, kayaks that are really meant for adults. These young anglers find these kayaks slow and hard to paddle which makes it challenging to keep up with mom or dad. With the Skipper, we've designed its hull from the ground up with the youth fisherman in mind, making it narrow enough so they can easily keep up with adults without getting too worn out or frustrated. The Skipper also offers a stable enough platform for standing while casting just like mom and dad do in our larger adult focused versions. It's no secret that our kids look up to us and want to use what mom or dad use in any sport or activity and this is why we've made the Skipper mirror our larger models with the following standard Jackson Kayak features: comfortable, smaller, hi/lo Elite seat...

The Director is the newest and biggest boat in the Zet kayak range! With a length of almost 2.7 metres and a volume of 360 litres, this boat is perfect for multi-day expeditions, extreme races and for all of those bigger paddlers out there. Despite its length the boat is extremely manoeuvrable and holds a line with ease, therefore excelling on difficult whitewater. Thanks to Zet's advanced manufacturing technologies and high performance design, the Director is the ultimate kayak for any big paddler on a whitewater mission.

The Toro has greater length and volume than the Zet Raptor and firmly puts it within the same category as the Liquid Logic Squirrel, and Pyranha 9r.

What happens when you morph the best of the Karma creek boat with the Best of the original Zen river runner? You get an amazing river running and creeking kayak in the 2015 Zen. This boat runs dry with ample bow rocker, rolls like a dream with flared sidewalls and the other special JK ingredients that make up a great rolling boat. It has a super fast hull that seems to float over the water and be impervious to boils, and other currents that try to take you off line, while sits nice and stable on the water making it a teacher’s dream boat for students learning to paddle.
