]]> The Strike HD utilizes our Freedom Drive propulsion system. The Freedom Drive simply drops into a pair of secure drive locks, and with a push of the feet, the fins move side-to-side and propel you forward. This side-to-side movement mimics how a penguin’s wings allow it to glide through the water. We designed a recess in the hull to allow the Freedom Drive’s fins to tuck up and out of the way, allowing for almost zero draft in shallow water, such as when you’re launching or landing.

We designed the Strike from the ground up by combining our favorite design features in the kayak industry and improving on the common shortcomings.

Additional Features:

  • 2 – 16” aluminum gear tracks
  • 4 – 8” rear aluminum gear tracks
  • 2 flush mount rod holders
