We all know size matters, right? And the biggest and boldest of paddlers have been neglected for too long. So with a big heart, we are entering the big boat market, big time!

We are not talking about a medium design scaled up proportionately. Simply put, that doesn't work. A tall heavy person might be only 10% taller, but 40% heavier than the guys the M boats are designed for. So to make the XL kayak deliver the same performance as a M boat, you have to redesign it from scratch with the end goal in mind. Simply taking an existing design and scaling it up X percentage just doesn't work.

The BigFoot is not a classic half slice. It's shorter, making it more nimble and playfull, especially in smaller river features. The tail is small enough to pivot, but it's not going to be squirly small in challenging water. It'll surf up a storm on the smallest to bigest waves, and the bow is just small enough to allow you to throw down when you really want to.

Despite the playfull pedigree, major attention was payed to downriver paddling. The generous rocker and ample bow volume provides a dry, secure ride, while radically tucked rails keep the boat supremely forgiving in the most squirly of conditions. It's fast enough for those must make moves, while keeping an exciting sporty feel on the water.

Fit and comfort are key, and is the biggest complaint of stocky folks cramming into kayaks. Hip and thigh room is of paramount importance, as well as ample footroom for those giants out there.

The boat will come with its own specifically designed outfitting, made for large paddlers. That's right, we're not going to just drop in the outfitting we have: we're building the right fittings for you.

The BigFoot comes with the transport wheel.
