2 Over 98% of our boat materials and components are American made, and we re striving to get that figure closer to 100%. Even all our seating and sewn components are made in the USA. We play a vital role in the economy of our local community as well as the paddlesports community. Founded 11 years ago by world champion Eric (EJ) Jackson and fellow paddler Tony Lunt, Jackson Kayak was given little chance at success by the kayak industry establishment. Well, in 10 short years, we ve grown from five employees in a 700 square foot building near the banks of Tennessee s Caney Fork River, to a worldwide leader in paddlesports. We now have 150 dedicated employees operating in a 100,000 square- foot facility just down the road in Sparta, TN, and are the fastest growing major kayak company in the US! Voted # 1 Made in USA Kayak Manufacturer! In 2013 Jackson Kayak was voted the #1 Made in USA Kayak Manufacturer. Since then our craftsmanship and diligence in keeping our products locally made has garnered regular notice, including this years Tennessee s Governor s Award for Trade Excellence, and nominations to this year s Outdoor Retailer Inspiration Awards (along side Patagonia and Coleman) as well as the Made in USA awards. Jackson Kayak is a community. It begins with EJ and his kin...kristine, Emily, son-in-law Nick' and Dane (all world champions), and KC. However, our true family includes our employees, teams, business partners, and paddlers worldwide who enjoy kayaking and SUP like we do. We take our work seriously but we also remain serious about paddling. For us, the two are inseparable. We have a dedicated group of designers, each with decades of experience, but their work is based on the demands and input from our community. Without this input and feedback, the innovation you see from Jackson Kayak could not happen. Kayak colors depicted in this catalog may not be current. MADE IN USA 3

3 OUTDOORSMEN (Hunting & Fishing ) 2015 In 2010, Jackson Kayak teamed with pro kayak angler Drew Gregory to produce the Coosa, and truly revolutionized kayak fishing. We now produce a complete line of fishing kayaks that offer all-day comfort, unprecedented standability, thoroughly thought-out deck designs, and unmatched accessorization. Each of our fishing kayaks comes standard with our patented Hi-Lo Elite seat, which sets the industry standard for comfort, allows for quick adjustment to different heights, makes standing up easier than ever and is quickly removable for transport or use as a camp chair. The Elite seat, like the rest of the boat, is proudly made in the USA. All models are decked out with rod staging, tackle box recesses, paddle holders, storage designed to keep your gear close at hand, and a myriad of other features specific to the needs of each model. Molded-in GoPro and RAM accessory mounts are standard, allowing you to set up your kayak to your style of fishing with no unnecessary holes drilled into the boat. In just two short years, Jackson Kayak has become widely known as the most innovative kayak fishing brand, with models to suit almost any need. Outdoorsmen's kayaks, designed by outdoormen.

10 WHITEWATER 2015 The same qualities that make our boats the choice of the world s best in competition and Class V explorations also make them ideal for the rest of us: Top quality materials and craftsmanship All-day comfort due to ergonomic design, ease of adjustability, and innovative outfitting features 4-time world champion and Olympic kayaker Eric Jackson first collaborated with avid paddler and naval architect David Knight in 1997 in the design of a whitewater kayak that would change the industry, The Fun was the result, a kayak made for paddlers from the age of 9 and over! Since then we since produced dozens of the world s most successful whitewater kayaks ensuring everyone can paddle. Jackson kayaks have won more medals at freestyle world championship events than any other brand, and won all of the World Whitewater Grand Prix events to date in our creek and river running kayaks, where top paddlers from around the world compete in a series of extreme races. Hull shapes that maximize performance, stability, and ease of use, regardless of skill level More sizes to fit more paddlers than any other brand OUR PLAYBOATS win world championships, dominate podiums and are designed to improve the skill of every freestyler with designs that forgive, improve and take paddlers to the next level. Jackson Kayak has recently refocused the design of the Rock Star series towards improved performance on waves and holes, giving it more pop, userfriendliness and the uncanny ability to make anyone a better paddler. The Rockstar also takes the elite to new heights in speed, carvitude and performance bringing it to the top of podiums in a World Championship year. RIVER RUNNING took a giant leap forward with the release of the new 2015 Zen. The Zen has become the boat of choice for both the new paddler and the experienced river runner alike with a combination of river savvy hull and features that give it speed and river running skill that has been hard to match. The Zen broke all speed records for JK in the last few years making it a strong competitor in many a river race. Its speed and handling have set a new standard for the pure river runner, regardless of skill level. Our Dynamic Duo continues to be the leading tandem whitewater kayak for good reason. It s easy, comfortable and the perfect teaching tool for those not yet ready to paddle alone. It also eliminates any excuse not to take friends and family down the river. CREEK design has long been a focus for JK, especially outfitting and safety. Our creek boats include the innovative and unique Uni-shock Bulkhead, bomber back band technology and continually improving plastic and hull strength. In 2013 Jackson Kayak introduced the Karma, built on the Zen s fast hull and bulked up with a new creek deck shape and creek outfitting. Already the Karma has set the bar high winning all of the Whitewater Grand Prix on a variety of creeks, water fall laden runs and the big water of Chile s legendary Futaleufu as well as on the legendary rivers of Quebec. (Spoiler) Look for more good karma from Jackson Kayak! SUP is one of the hottest paddlesports around and JK is happy to provide yet another water craft to our whitewater fleet. The SUPerCHARGER is a durable, fastspinning, wave-breaking toy for all you whitewater enthusiasts.
