Starfire

New to the Spade Kayaks fleet

HALF THE SLICE, DOUBLE THE FUN
Play the river! The Starfire is the ideal fun machine for young and light paddlers.

Barracuda

New to the Spade Kayaks fleet

NEED FOR SPEED!
Uncompromisingly fast, radical turns and tons of fun – the Barracuda is a modern half-slice for competition and white water.

The Joker

New to the Spade Kayaks fleet

If you like to charge through pushy waves and across boiling eddy lines at the speed of a barracuda the Joker is for you. Turning on a dime when loading the stern is a breeze and pirouetting along eddy lines might become your new normal.

The Bliss

New to the Spade Kayaks fleet

The Bliss will take the fun on your favourite play run to a new level. At a length of 245cm and it’s planning hull it’s perfectly suited for playful whitewater and spicing up your runs with freestyle moves along the way.

Black Jack

New to the Spade Kayaks fleet

The Black Jack is a modern white water kayak that perfectly bridges the gap between a river runner and a creek boat. High volume and high rocker give it the dry line ability and buoyancy that a full on creek boat needs.

Royal Flush

New to the Spade Kayaks fleet

The Royal Flush is an ultra-dynamic kayak, that excels in deep waters, but doesn’t mind a low water creek run either. If you like to pull the stick and swing the hips, the Royal Flush is your weapon.

Queen of Hearts

New to the Spade Kayaks fleet

With a width of 62cm, a length of 250cm and a volume of approx. 245 liters, the Queen Of Hearts brings light paddlers and youngsters between 35 and 65kg the fun we love about Black Jack and Royal Flush.

Where you find us

SPADE lookbook 2022

We are deeply passionate about whitewater kayaking. It’s not just a sport. It’s the people we meet, the adventures we get into along the way and the places we get to see. As a company we strive to protect these places the best we can and are aware of the challenges our business faces as a result. We feel the best way to remind us what’s at stake, is to go to these places and fall in love with them.

What the Team says

Spade Team reviews.

Though I would pair up better with Black Jack, I’m in love with the Royal Flush. My Guru’s who designed it says “Royal Flush is your „Hattori Hanzo sword“ of extreme white water weapons.” Yes they are right! It’s fast, it’s precise and most [···]

Anup Gurung

The Royal Flush
Ace of Spades : i Love this boat to run big waterfalls and Steep Creeks i total Creek Machine. [···]

Johann Castor

The Ace of Spades
It’s been a year since I am using the Royal Flush and I only can say good things about this boat. What I really like about Royal Flush is that the first week using it, it feels like you have been paddling this boat for a long time. [···]

Aran Balagueró

The Royal Flush
I really like the royal flush, especially on creek rivers and waterfalls. It is stable, fast and even easy to paddle at! Its edges are incredible and sick to boof any drop and its outfit is very cool and comfortable! I love it! [···]

Our Rivers are changing. Are you?

Spade Kayaks is a member of 1% for the Planet. It all started when two businessmen met and bonded over their shared love for the outdoors. In 2002, Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia, and Craig Mathews, founder of Blue Ribbon Flies, created 1% for the Planet and started a global movement.

“The intent of 1% for the Planet is to help fund these diverse environmental organizations so that collectively they can be a more powerful source in solving the world’s problems.”

1% of Spade Kayaks yearly sales are donated to the Free Rivers Fund.

a paddler owned company

Spade Kayaks was founded »by paddlers, for paddlers«.

Good to know.

We are a young company. But we ain’t no greenhorns. Spade Kayaks has a backup of a few generations of paddlers, with an overall paddling experience of more than 125 years.

We are paddlers.

We have spent most of our life time traveling around the globe, searching for the perfect river. Paddling is a state of mind and a way of living and therefore plain essential for all of us.

The perfect boat.

But how perfect can the perfect river be without the perfect boat? We always wanted to build our own kayak, according to our ideas and conceptions.

 

Mission accomplished?

Not yet! We for sure keep on working hard to get as close as possible, as soon as possible to our objective target. Word.

Meet the people behind the company.
