- Built for Whitewater
Dagger Supernova Whitewater Kayak

A planing hull built to slice, surf, and spin
The SuperNova's wide, flat planing hull and defined carving rail are tuned for playful river running. It is a full-slice machine inspired by the legendary half-slice and full-slice designs of the late 90s and early 2000s, rebuilt with modern Dagger performance.
- Wide, flat planing hull for stable, lively surfing
- Defined carving rail for crisp wave and eddy moves
- Full-slice design lets you slice, squirt, and spin

Sized for bigger paddlers who want to play
The SuperNova is the larger of the Nova/SuperNova pair, purpose-built for a heavier paddler range so the hull trims and reacts the way it should. Dialing the boat to your weight delivers superior on-water performance and predictable handling.
- Paddler weight range of 145 to 250 lbs
- 27 in beam for a confident, balanced platform
- Companion to the Nova, which fits smaller paddlers

Contour Ergo outfitting that locks you in
Dagger's Contour Ergo Outfitting system surrounds you with adjustable contact points so the boat moves as an extension of your body. Roto-molded seating, a ratcheting leg lifter, and precision thigh braces tune the fit on or off the water.
- Roto-molded seat with fore/aft adjustment and ratcheting leg lifter (3 in of lift)
- Quick-release, adjustable hip pads and precision thigh braces with 2 in of travel
- Stacked-foam footrest you can customize to your reach

Tough hardshell build with a safety step-out wall
Built as a one-piece rotomolded hardshell, the SuperNova stands up to hard contact while keeping weight to a manageable 38 lbs. An integrated safety step-out wall adds structural support and aids emergency exits.
- Durable rotomolded polyethylene hardshell
- Safety step-out wall for emergency exits and stiffness
- 38 lb hull weight for easy carrying and loading

Great company. Colton was very helpful in selecting a great paddle. Very knowledgeable.
★★★★★ Recommended on FacebookGot my wife's first kayak here and the guys were super helpful and friendly. Immediately welcoming and inviting — I can't wait to go back and browse their large inventory of kayaks and gear. Thank y'all for making our experience awesome!
★★★★★ Recommended on FacebookSo pleased with my Recon 120HD! Even though they're 2 hours away I had my kayak shipped to me. The packing was great and I received it undamaged. They were super helpful over the phone answering all my questions while I chose which kayak I wanted. Awesome company!
★★★★★ Recommended on FacebookI bought my first kayak (I'm 61) thanks to Parker's education and patience. He spent two hours with me and even after the sale continued to patiently answer my many questions and offer advice. I was completely at ease and enjoyed the whole experience.
★★★★★ Recommended on FacebookThe Mecca of anything kayaking and kayak fishing! I ordered a new kayak from their website and they had it ready and waiting when I got there. Very friendly and helpful staff, and the largest inventory of kayak accessories anywhere around.
★★★★★ Recommended on FacebookBought a great Nova Craft canoe here — a 3–4 hour drive from home but well worth it. It took them about 5 minutes to load it and strap it on my car and I was gone.
★★★★★ Recommended on FacebookYou guys rock — super fast shipping and my kayak got to my doorstep without a scratch. It was definitely packed with care! I'm already recommending you to all my kayak friends.
