It seems like an age since the launch of a totally new kayak from Jackson Kayak. But here it is the new Gnarvana.
Available in three sizes the Gnarvana is designed for running any type of water.
Jackson Kayak’s Gnarvana is an evolution of the Nirvana. The Gnarvana has a higher bow rocker, and wider centre point than the Nirvana. The float and rocker profile should make this creek boat incredibly easy to manoeuvre.
The outfitting will be familiar to Jackson Kayak users, super comfy, and super easy. However there is also a new carrier strap.

Once more, no size small for the petitie ladies under 150 lbs. 🙁
Actually, we’re making it in 3 sizes. There will be a small that’ll be best if you’re under 150 lbs. This article just didn’t show the specs for all 3 sizes
More detail of specifications added to the post.
Hi Stephen, what does the new carry strap consist of and how does it work?
I have added more detail to the post. The small model might be a possibility.
needs 2b longer. 9 foot 4 is too short. 10 footer would be nice.
