Swift’s Saranac 15 is a light-touring kayak that offers unprecedented speed, tracking and roominess. With an optimum load range of 170 – 325 lbs. you don’t need to pack light, and you’ll have lots of leg room under the deck.

 

We demoed the Swift Saranac 15, as well as the Blu Wave Catalina iSUP.
We demoed the Swift Saranac 15, as well as the Blu Wave Catalina iSUP 14.0 (SUP available next year).

The increased waterline offers better glide; speed is easily maintained, and noticeable – the Saranac outpaced the polymer boats in our group. It is also extremely lightweight. The Hybrid Fusion model weighs in at 38 lbs., the Kevlar Fusion 34 lbs., and the Carbon Fusion 32 lbs. (add two pounds for skeg).

Morning rip with @jessemunden_ 🫡 #mountainlifer
Who’s having a multi-sport day?! 😆 @timemmett probably is.
Bruce County is much more than the Bruce Peninsula. We’re here to let you in on a secret: a thriving community nestled in Bruce County’s interior region, just waiting to be discovered. The village of Paisley offers something for everyone, and isn’t overrun by summer crowds.
The mere thought of a cougar or any other apex predator in our midst can turn a backcountry adventure into a psychological test of mind over matter. Luckily, our fears are mostly in our heads and few have experienced a negative wildlife encounter. But, for ultramarathoner @samuel.dickie, it got real. #Linkinbio to read more!
MAG DROP! 🤩
Happy National Indigenous Peoples Day (today and every day)!
Together with our partners we’ve picked our favourite summer trail shoes, in alpha order, for your crush-it summer. #linkinbio
