I think 2017 will see a focus on super fun river running, cartwheeling, blunting, and carving designs.

Designed as a river-runner first, the length, volume, and edges are optimized to squirt, be lightweight compared to creek boats, and extremely maneuverable. Paddlers will love this boat on their local runs, replacing the need for a creek boat for many and increasing the fun factor with its playable features.<\/p>\n<p>River-runners of all levels will appreciate these Antix features:<\/p>\n<p>Short, slicey ends allow for squirting, splatting, and down-river fun<\/p>\n<p>Planing hull for great surfing, spinning and stability<\/p>\n<p>Uni-shock bulkhead system and U-Channel track for quick adjustment and to protect paddler and kayak<\/p>\n<p>Available in two sizes \u2013 small\/medium and medium\/large.<\/p>\n<p>The Antix delivers a great experience for beginners, intermediate and advanced kayakers who want to take advantage of river features; technical rapids, downstream play moves and easy paddling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a boat we have been missing from our lineup since we started in 2004. Like the Hero, it gives people a short, easy to paddle kayak for their local runs, but the Antix adds in some vertical play with the squirt, splat, etc\u2026 Fun times ahead,\u201d explained Eric Jackson, Kayak Co-Designer with David Knight and Jackson Kayak President.<\/p>\n<p>WEIGHT: 45 LBS<br \/>\nWIDTH: 25\u201d<br \/>\nLENGTH: 7\u20194\u201d\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jackson Kayak have two new whitewater kayaks being showcased next week at the Outdoor Retailer show, the Nirvana and the Antix.
