  • Big bow rocker plows over obstacles with ease
  • Large hull platform keeps you on the surface and spinning
  • Small, winged stern simplifies squirts, stalls, and splats

  • Crisp, tuned edges for a super-slippery, smooth glide
  • Carve and surf waves and features with ease
Adjustable outfitting for all-day comfort

Got 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!

So 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!

I 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.

The 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.

Bought 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.

You 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.

The LiquidLogic Hot Whip 72 is a play machine for the whole river — play spots and rapids included. A playboat is great for tricks, but can be a chore to take downriver. The Hot Whip solves that. Designed as a half-slice with play in mind, it lets you throw down at every feature while still running river sections with confidence and comfort.

Key Features

  • Half-slice design — built for play on waves, holes, and moving water
  • Full river capability — comfortable and confident on river runs, not just play spots
  • Available Color: Venom
