Some of the best days on the river happen when it's just you and one other person.

Reading water together. Calling out commands or those moves where you are synchronized without saying a word. Digging to punch that hole. Celebrating the moves you greased and laughing about the ones you didn't.

Whether it's an Ark 10'6" or a HammerCat, these boats are built around the idea that rivers are better shared.

Save your strength for the water. Our Electric Pump is the perfect addition to your inflatable lineup and makes inflation a quick and easy process. Electric pumps are included with every inflatable purchase from our website, Surf Shop, and at participating retailers.

Don't miss your chance to win a one-of-a-kind custom Hammer Cat painted by and benefitting !

Win a one-of-a-kind Badfish Hammercat customized by Jess Oatman Art and support access to Colorado rivers! American Whitewater has been working hard to pass legislation that would once and for all ensure safe and legal boating on rivers. Colorado has the worst legal landscape for access for boaters in the West. There is overwhelming public support - 84% of Colorado voters support clear laws that provide for floating and contact with the riverbed when needed for safety - and we need the state toĀ introduceĀ a bill to clear up murky laws around the public’s rights while floating on rivers that flow over private property. This lack of clarity has already put boaters in dangerous scenarios and without new policy is undoubtedly going to put folks in bad situations.Ā 

Your chance to win = keeping the fight going for keeping our public waterways public! Buy tickets today! Ticket sales close at midnight on June 8th and the winner will be drawn on the 9th. All ticket holders will get a notification on June 10th.
