This is a list of Jackson Kayak models and sizes that we currently offer for demo at the NOC Outfitter's Store in Bryson City, NC.
Demo kayaks are first come, first serve. They cannot be reserved ahead. You must have class II-III whitewater kayaking experience, a reliable combat roll, and your own gear in order to demo. Demo boats may only be taken on the lower Nantahala River or the lake nearby. Demo boats may not be paddled past the play hole just downstream from the Outfitter's Store.
Pricing:Â 1 hour - Free, Half Day (up to 4 hours) - $35, and Full Day (More than 4 hours) - $50
Jackson Antix 3.0 - Small, Medium, & Large
The Antix 3.0 is Jackson’s latest half-slice / river play whitewater kayak. It stays true to the Antix lineage — offering strong playfulness, surfability, and responsiveness — while introducing refinements in hull shape, volume distribution, and outfitting to modernize the feel and performance.
Jackson Flow - Small, Medium, & Large
The Jackson Flow is a fast, forgiving river runner designed to help paddlers build confidence while still having plenty of fun on the water. With a stable hull, smooth resurfacing bow, and responsive handling, the Flow makes it easy to catch eddies, surf waves, and navigate rapids with control. Perfect for paddlers progressing their skills or looking for a dependable all-around whitewater kayak.
Jackson Clutch - M/L
The Jackson Clutch blends playful half-slice performance with the confidence of a creek boat. Its planing hull and slicey stern make it easy to surf waves, catch eddies, and throw stern squirts, while the fuller bow and forgiving design help it stay composed in steeper, more technical rapids. The result is a versatile whitewater kayak that lets paddlers mix playful moves with confident creek-style river running.
Jackson Rockstar V - Small, Medium, & Large
The Jackson Rockstar V is a high-performance freestyle kayak built for throwing big tricks and pushing your playboating progression. Its compact design and aggressive planing hull make it fast, responsive, and incredibly easy to get vertical for loops, cartwheels, and aerial moves. Whether you're dialing in new tricks or competing at the highest level, the Rockstar V delivers explosive freestyle performance on waves and in holes.
