Some call it an active lifestyle. We prefer to call it inspired. Not merely on the move, but looking for adventure. It’s this shared passion that is the core of every Dagger kayak. Break away from a world where limits seem to be around every corner. We’re here to reveal the places without them. From the mountains to the sea; and everywhere in between.

Dagger’s whitewater roots in performance and responsiveness forge an exhilarating experience into the entire lineup. That’s why we’re trusted for top adventures and expeditions throughout the world, but most importantly the ones in your own backyard.

Team TesTed. Paddler Proven.

Our heritage of classic kayak designs is celebrated by paddlers from the casual to the competitor. It’s born from an understanding of the space between the drawing board and the hull hitting the water. Our integrated R&D process ensures every boat meets the standards of the design team and passes the punishment of Team Dagger.

With a history of record-breaking first descents and a growing tower of competition trophies and medals, Team Tested approval doesn’t come easy. We’ve got the scars to prove it. Most importantly, no design gets the Dagger stamp unless it's as exciting to talk about the experience as it was to live it.
