PERFORMANCE-MINDED CROSSOVER PLATFORM
Given a chance, we'd paddle whitewater every day. But life doesn't always throw us what we want. That's why we've designed the Ethos - to take you from one adrenaline-fuelled adventure to the next. Conquer a rapid, ride a wave train and cruise on down the river in search of more. When you need to cover some ground, carry all the kit and still have fun, why compromise?
ULTIMATE CROSSOVER PLATFORM
The ultimate crossover platform with more whitewater performance attributes than other designs in its category. The Ethos is fitted with our full whitewater footplate system and has a whitewater focused rocker profile and progressive chines that bring outstanding speed and control. Uncompromised comfort on long river days or multi-day treks is made possible with our roomy cockpit and sizeable gear storage space.
STABLE AND FORGIVING
The Ethos is a stable, forgiving, performance-minded crossover platform that also offers a confidence-building introduction to paddling whitewater. The hull is manoeuvrable in rapids, yet tracks well on flat water with the help of a drop down skeg system. Offering outstanding comfort on long, multi-day river treks due to the roomy cockpit, sizeable gear-storage space and our signature WhiteOut Outfitting.
Go Explore
Take the Ethos with you on your adventures to those harder to reach locations. This crossover kayak has it all to offer both on and off the water - light and easy enough to carry, but put it on the water and drop the skeg and you'll soon be cruising at speed.
Drop the skeg
Skeg up! Skeg down! Change your mind as often as the water dictates - The easy to reach cleat allows you to drop the spring loaded skeg and up the tracking performance of the Ethos kayak. Pull on the control cord once more and the whitewater inspired hull delivers the manoeuverability and responsiveness needed to tackle some rapids or catch a wave!
Load Up
For longer trips on the river, load up the spacious rear hatch with all the gear you need. It could be a night away under the stars or an indulgent picnic... the space is yours, so pack what you like!
