Product Details
This is where adventure begins.
Whether you're paddling in surf, rock gardens, open water, tidal estuaries, or meandering rivers, the Stratos touring kayak is designed to excel. Beginners will appreciate its stability and forgiveness, while intermediate and expert paddlers will love its sporty hull that offers speed and maneuverability on any adventure. With an adjustable drop-skeg, the Stratos aids in tracking, and its 2 hatches, bulkheads, and deck bungees make gear storage easy. Whether you're embarking on a multi-day touring adventure or just heading out for a day trip to your favorite rock garden or surf spot, the Stratos is the do-it-all kayak that stays with you on every step of your journey. The 14.5 kayak is slightly smaller for smaller paddlers.
Contour CFS outfitting system
The Contour Custom Fit System (CFS) combines the proven technical capabilities of whitewater outfitting with the decadent comfort of a touring seat.
Roto-Molded Seating with Leg Lifter
The Stratos includes a roto-molded seat for improved structure and durability. Customize your kayak for a perfect fit with our exclusive leg lifter technology that provides a 3" lift for snug control of your kayak. The adjustable comfort control hip pads add another layer of ultimate fit and control.
Adjustable padded thigh braces
With its ergonomic shape and soft padding, the thigh braces offer next-level comfort, keeping you locked in and in control, which is especially important when taking the Stratos into surf and other dynamic environments.
