Jackson Fun

For 2007, Jackson has redesigned and improved the whole Fun series. The New Fun floats the amazing simplicity and versatility of the classic design to the next level of performance– and in so many ways! Rollability: you deserve the confidence that the low stern, flexible backband, and flared sidewall of our Fun series provides every level of paddler – it’s the easiest boat to roll ever! More Volume: improvements in leg and foot-room pump up the volume from 51 gal to 53, resulting in floatier river running and bigger loops while a 1/2’’ increase in hull-width improves initial stability. Slicier Shape: the new design reduces water resistance, making it easier to get vertical in flatwater. Rounded Deck Edges: the new friendlier deck shape and softened stern edge not only allows water to run off smoother for quicker re-surfacing but also protect your hands and elbows from sharp corners, edges, or deck-lines. Faster, Looser Hull: this new hull is EASIER TO SPIN, faster on waves, and carries more speed through crisply carved turns. A slight crown replaces the grooves to create a silky smooth feel whether on sliding down small waves, big waves, or rocks. For paddlers between 150 and 180 pounds, this boat is what could be the most fun you can have on any river that doesn’t require a full-on creekboat. It is easy to get down the river right side up, and with the most control possible. It is very comfortable to sit in all day, yet small enough to get vertical on demand easily. It has great surfing speed and carving characteristics, while still being easy to keep the ends from catching. It loops and cartwheels equally well, with balanced volume fore and aft. Coming in under 30 pounds is a big plus for both performance and ease of carrying up the steepest of takeouts. New-07!
