Tested and approved by some of the world’s most skilled paddlers, the JITSU Freestyle Kayak by Dagger has a fast, loose hull with defined edges that make it ideal for surfing waves and preforming wicked aerial maneuvers. It’s unique rocker profile make it exceptionally nimble and is said to be the perfect blend of speed, looseness, and release on waves. The JITUS’s performance-minded design also makes it suitable for a wide variety of skill sets, appealing to competitors, park-and-play enthusiasts and those who just enjoy paddling the biggest waves and sickest holes around.
We love the JITSU for is compact, feature rich design and super plush cockpit arrangements. The double-step carving rail above the release edge also helps the boat to grip and drive on wave faces for very controlled carving. Dagger claims the JITSU maintains snappy edge-to-edge transitions yet is arguably the loosest hull on the market today. From what we can see, the JITSU is a solid all-around choice for those who want to enjoy big waves, holes on river, and freestyle competition!
