Spade Kayaks The Black Jack
The Black Jack isn’t your traditional jack-of-all-trades. This fusion of modern white water kayak design with a more traditional river running feel gives you a dependable white water machine.
Dry lines and good times guaranteed.
The Black Jack blurs the lines between creeking and river running. With plenty of volume and the right amount of rocker, but a flat hull and responsive edges, this kayak excels both in big water and on your low water local.
When precision counts, the Black Jack has your back. Kept flat, you get the full benefit of the elongated waterline to charge over cross currents and find your line. But put on a little edge and this kayak takes on a whole new feel.
It’s no shrinking violet on the steep stuff, either. That waterline that lets you charge big water also helps you build speed quickly between drops and the rocker lets you land with a vision of the next rapid. The ends of the kayak taper slowly to maintain volume without bulk, keeping you stable as you resurface.
You get dynamic charging, fast turns, and dry lines all from a responsive creeker. What more could you ask for?
Spade Outfitting
We know better than most that outfitting is perhaps the most important aspect of a kayak. This interface between you and the hull is integral to your control and feedback while on the water and cannot be underestimated. Our ergonomically focused outfitting has been specially designed for long days on the water without adding excess weight to the kayak.
Key to this is the integrated seat-rail-tower combination that gives you optimal control over your setup. The thigh braces, hip pads, backrest, and seat pad have all been tried and tested to make sure they are ready for tireless days on the water. The central pillar supports the cockpit in high-pressure situations such as pins or over drops. It can also be used as a step-out pillar for safe exits in whitewater.
