Jackson Kayaks Fun 1.5

Getting kids into a kayak that actually fits them properly is one of the most important things you can do for their development as paddlers.

The Jackson Fun 1.5 is purpose-built for smaller paddlers, sized and weighted so young kayakers can grip, control, and manoeuvre their boat the way it's meant to be paddled. World-class paddler Dane Jackson grew up in boats like this one, and the difference a properly fitted kayak makes in building confidence and technique early is something he speaks to directly. The Fun 1.5 is light enough for kids to handle independently, easy enough to learn to roll in, and fully capable of progressing from pool sessions and flatwater to river runs, surf waves, and introductory freestyle moves as skills develop.

At just 23 lbs, this is a kayak young paddlers can genuinely call their own, carry to the water themselves, and grow into over multiple seasons of paddling on Canadian rivers and lakes.
