Dish out more than the river can take. This soon to be legendary boat was modeled after some of the best steep creekers ever made (Freefall, Gradient, CFS, etc.), so we know you’ll want to put in to every creek in a 500-mile radius. To improve on the unimprovable, Dagger added length for better speed and handling in big water, but never fear – it’s still short and quick enough for those epic creek runs that are perfect for braggin’ rights.

The Flipswitch™ backband gives you choice fit and support and let’s you enter and exit with ease. And if the water is bigger than your eyes, there are six rescue attachment points. Even better, the Nomad comes with a step out center wall to aid in the case of a pin.
