Sea Kayak Outfitting

Custom Fit. Superior Control. Ultimate Comfort.

Enhance your paddling experience with professional sea kayak outfitting using closed cell foam. Whether you’re a touring kayaker, Greenland paddler, or surf zone adventurer, or an instructor, a properly outfitted kayak dramatically improves comfort, performance, and safety on the water.

Our connection is to the water. That connection is through the kayak. Without a good fit, that connection to the water is missing. 

Water, Kayak, Body, Paddle

Benefits of outfitting with closed cell foam:

  • Improved control and edge response
  • Increased paddling efficiency and power transfer
  • Reduced fatigue on long paddles
  • Enhanced bracing and rolling performance
  • Increased comfort

Quality Materials, Expert Craftsmanship.

We use only premium closed cell foam in a variety of densities to match your outfitting needs. Each piece is carefully cut, shaped, and installed with attention to ergonomics, contact points, and durability. The result: a kayak that feels like an extension of your body.

  • Hip pads and side supports for snug fit and lateral stability
  • Lateral thigh blocks and hooks for precise control and comfortable edging
  • Foot rests and bulkhead padding for solid contact and leg drive for posture and support
  • Masik for traditional Greenland kayaks
