2025 Annual Gear Sale

Our Annual Gear Sale Starts Friday, 9/12

The sale continues every day we’re open until all gear is sold

 At the end of every season we sell off some of our used kayaks, SUPs and other paddling gear to make room for new inventory. That time has arrived! The sale continues through the end of our season on October 13, or until all items are sold. The gear we’re selling tends to be heavily used, and also heavily discounted, so it’s a good chance to score a great deal, if you’re okay with adopting some gear that’s been well-loved. All prices are non-negotiable, and all sales are final, with no refunds available. We are not posting items online at this point, so you must stop by our site to see what we are offering.
