Why We Like The Rock Star 4.0 Kayak
It’s no secret we love to play here at Backcountry, so it makes sense that we love getting out on the 2021 Jackson Kayaks Rockstar 4.0 Kayak to progress our freestyle skills with more pop and air than ever before. Offering a little bit of something for everyone, this freestyle/playboat kayak is just as ready to help progressing paddlers get their first taste of air as it is pushing expert paddlers to get higher than ever before. The most aerial boat Jackson’s ever made, this constant fan favorite boasts a number of upgrades for 2021 to keep us nimble on the water—added foot room and updated knee pockets offer optimal control for learning our first loops or getting down at the whitewater park, while a more balanced design helps us stay vertical end over end.
