What type of plastic are dagger kayaks made of?
Our kayaks are made from High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) plastic for a longer-lasting, stiffer, and impact-resistant kayak. Colors may vary slightly from those shown as each kayak that we produce is unique. Variations in color are not covered by warranty. High Density Linear Polyethylene HDPE HDPE is the PE of choice for kayaks that will be subject to extreme use on white water, sea kayaking and offshore angling. HDPE is a more expensive and more demanding to mould but the strength and through life results are the best.
What are the three types of kayaks?
There are three main types of kayak classifications. White Water, Recreational, and Sea kayaks. Within these classifications, there are sub classifications and variations of each boat design. There are many options or paths to learn to kayak. Be it a quick taster session to see if it is something for you, a weekend course or a 3-4 day more technique based course. However, spending a week in a kayak on both a lake and on a river will give you the perfect foundation and best way to learn this amazing sport!Recreational kayaks are the most common kayaks, and they are what most people use when they kayak on a lake, pond or calm river. They are shorter than 14 feet, and have wide, stable bodies, and wide, open cockpits designed for comfort and ease of entry and exit.If you’re more of a social paddler, a double kayak is the way to go. Sharing the experience with someone else (whether it’s a friend, partner, or family member) can make the trip more enjoyable and less tiring. With two people paddling, you’ll move faster and can take turns resting if needed.
