With short length surf-kayaks, white water kayaking is becoming increasingly popular.
A few years ago only, the length of most boats measured up to 400 cm. Nowadays 250 cm is the common length.
Whereas solid-hull white-water kayaks adequately meet all requirements, the problem remains, with regard to the aspect of storage, at home and in particular upon transportation.
For moving by car a luggage rack is required, or a trailer. Carriage by train is most problematic, and by air virtually impossible, because most airlines do not accept hard-hull boats.
In the face of white-water expeditions to distant locations worldwide becoming more popular, time has come to design a boat, which meets all the requirements of a short-length white-water kayaks, and which also corresponds to the demands of easy transportation, I.e. light weight and low volume flat-pack.
Being worldwide market leaders of innovative inflatable boats for travel, GRABNER have now introduced the JUMP, which meets all expectations of travelling white-water kayaking enthusiasts. The crafts remarkable features comprise.

Laguna, a super-light single touring kayak in carbon-aramide or GFK. Based on the Yukon shape, the Laguna is primarily suited for smaller and medium rivers and lakes. The keel is not as pronounced as on the longer touring kayaks, which gives the Laguna greater agility. Even slight impacts on the edges noticeably reduce the curve radius. So it is a lot of fun to maneuver the Laguna around tights bends. The weight of the carbon boat is approx. 18.5 kg. The handling of this lightweight is easy, loading on and off the car roof no longer a problem.

Designed to fulfill all your freestyle fantasies the 4 Twenty has a fine reputation for being a great all round playboat. Why should your boat dictate wave moves or hole action? With the 4 Twenty, you choose!
You can splitwheel yourself silly in the hole with smooth, balanced volume or you can plug it deep and loop your way skywards. On the wave you just have to drop a knee to engage the double Vortex rails. Carve with precision until you change your edge and explode from the wave into some unethical aerials.
And can we tell you a secret? The best way to cheat gravity is by paddling a nice and light boat with the all new Connect 30 outfitting for 2007.

For traditional paddlers and beginners the CHOPPER is the ideal kayak. The rounded hull with slight keel lines is easy to handle and provides a good balance between agility and speed. The high volume provides safety, even in more powerful waters.

The Burn's much more than just a modification of the critically acclaimed H3. We've listened to detailed feedback and given you more volume and subtly tweaked rails to keep you on the surface and on line. We've also refined the rails to stop you hanging up on shallower runs and rockslides and, of course, we've loaded it with the lightest, strongest outfitting around.
What does all this mean? It adds up to a boat that's easier to paddle in even more places. Whether you're eddy hopping down remote gorges in distant locations or burning your local on a Sunday afternoon, you'll soon forget about the Burn's pedigree and concentrate on having fun.

The boat of choice amongst river guides since ‘06. That should say it all, but we’ll give you some cold hard facts about the Nitro. This is a boat which retains exceptional speed and carving abilities in all whitewater environments, with enough volume and slightly raised edges to stay well above the water, yet fully playable
so you can take advantage of the features you find along your way downriver. It’s actually paddling this boat that Steve Fisher won the IR Big Gun Show back in ’06, with what could properly be re-named a back-blast…

Constant stimulation is what keeps your grey matter alive, so get ready to live long and fully aware! The Astro series offers a crisp and dynamic entry into the atmosphere with just the right combination of rocker and release edge to free yourself from the water world, then to make contact with this planet again in a safe and stylish way. All of that thanks to our trademark bevelled side edges and just the right amount of hull surface, along with a generous volume, evenly distributed around the cockpit. All these features serve the purpose of putting you in the right place at the right moment, well prepared for takeoff. If you must land front or backwards… we leave that up to you.

Due to its smaller measurements, the Creeker 225 is especially suited for smaller, lighter paddlers who are looking for a safe boat, also for more powerful waters. The pronounced keel in the bow area as well as lengthwise grooves at the stern provide good control when paddling straight on and make the Creeker 225 fast. Flat landings are softer due to the progressive displacement of water.

Our next evolutionary step in creeking. Handles big hydraulics with poise and resurfaces after big drops like a champ. Has surprising speed for its length and punches holes with authority. Shorter, quicker and more controlled, the Crux still has enough volume for multi-day trips for the hardcore boater.

The last thing you want is a surprising creek boat. The M3 only has one surprise, and that' how much easier it is to make your line.
Taking off, freefalling or touching down, defined rails keep you boofing on target and glued on line, cruising over waves and reactionaries. When you melt in deep, the sculpted deck gives you as much control as you have on the launch.
It's not just our hull shape that's setting the pace. Everything you need's right to hand, from the throwline holster on the redesigned plastic centre pillar to the easy access storage in the back. And because you're piloting from a Syncro 6 cockpit, you've got immediate response guaranteed.

From Iceland to South America the word has spread and pieces of evidence have been left all over the place: the Magnum is your best bet if you want to tackle the biggest and steepest waters this planet has to offer. Some say it is all in the way its sleek deck shape and rocker profile make it resurface gradually without throwing you on your back. Others say the way we shaped the tail and worked the volume behind the cockpit, keeps you from being pushed in into bad corners and prevents stern squirts, so you get exactly where you want to be in the first place. Our take on that matter? Provide paddlers with thoughtfully designed, down-river tools to express themselves and you won’t believe what your eyes will see.

Award-winning, super fun river-runner with enough volume for all-day comfort and predictable handling in grabby hydraulics and squirrelly eddies. Pronounced bow and stern rocker yields easy surfing performance and loose, forgiving spins and play. Tucked rail keeps edges out of trouble in holes while providing good carving ability on waves.

The Seven-0's a playboat for the whole river, not just the queues at the competition venue.
We designed it as an out-and-out wave machine: you can soul surf the smallest ripple with the long, fast hull or engage those full length carving rails to tear up the biggest, pumpiest waves you can find. Dizzyingly fast flat spins, enormous airblunts or even the helix, the Seven-0 gives you all the options.
It's not just for the waves, though. The overall length makes it stable and predictable on end in the hole while it also has the speed for downriver moves like hammers, kickflips and macho moves.

The Hercules convinces due to its good-natured and controllable ways. Above all heavy weights and larger paddlers will appreciate the massive volume and space. The Hercules tackles whitewater up to high levels of difficulty without any problems. The kayak is incredibly safe in the water, hardly sensitive with regard to the impact of water from the sides and has excellent buoyancy qualities after holes and ledges. All test drivers were able to handle the Hercules right away - a clear sign of a well-realized design. The Hercules is surprisingly agile, runs well in eddies and boofs effortlessly. The hatch provides an easy emergency exit, also due to non-existing middle wedges. The ideally positioned rim of the cockpit now offers perfect room for the back. The Hercules is the best PRIJON WW kayak in years, due to its never disappointing good and predictable riding
qualities.

Take two boats to the river? Not with the two-in-one Stretch! A predictable river runner that still lets you play the river.
The Stretch is easy downriver: easy to roll, easy to turn and super easy to boof. The forgiving rails cut you some slack while the ample deck volume gives you the confidence and predictability of a full-on river runner.
Punch the hole, boof the curler and then, when you get to the playspot, you can still squirt, spin, splat and cartwheel your day away with flat playboat hull and generous footroom.

What if we told you all that current is on your side from now on? That’s true: you are not going down river to fight anything but to wisely use energy that’s already there, at your disposal. The thing here is to know when and how much you have to take from it, and we believe your equipment should be of some support for that. Take our Thunder for example: a fast, flat hull with just the right amount of edge combinedwith enough deck volume to keep you floating high so you can effortlessly carve into and out of eddies or cruise across currents, surfing curlers. All of this so you can get right where you planned to be once you get in the midst of the action. Theboundary between control and opportunism is paper thin in the world of naturepowered sports but we believe the purpose of a good river runner should be to push that thought as far out of your way as possible.
