It's fun, playful and pure magic.

When Current Designs' head designer Brian Henry saw and paddled the Caribou , he was so impressed that he asked its designer, Barry Buchanan if he would like Current Designs to produce his kayak. We are very proud to include Barry's wonderful kayak design in the Current Designs family. The Caribou "S" is best described as a modified Greenland design with a narrow, hard chine hull and a low deck profile. This shallow vee, hard chine hull design offers unusually high stability. The narrow beam and the low deck offer reduced windage and a sporty appeal.

The Caribou "S" features a clean deck arrangement with flush hatches fore and aft. Recessed deck fittings accommodate full deck rigging and safety perimeter lines. The seat comes with a comfortably padded backband. The easy to enter cockpit is molded with padded thigh braces shaped to fit a wide range of paddler sizes.

The skeg is standard on the Caribou "S" and when deployed, allows this nimble craft to track harder when in adverse conditions. A long, narrow craft with a clean appearance and a gracefully sweeping sheer line, the Caribou "S" displays its performance bred heritage by its very presence. The Caribou "S" is fast, nimble, and a pure joy to paddle.
