Colorado Kayak Supply (CKS) is an eCommerce paddlesports retailer located in Steamboat Springs, Colorado on the banks of the Yampa River. We were founded in 2020 when we recognized the potential of expanding the original CKS in Buena Vista, Colorado into the online sector.

At CKS, we are passionate paddlers dedicated to providing gear, information, and a sense of community to fellow whitewater enthusiasts, while also striving to protect and preserve the natural environments we paddle for future generations.

We are a group of whitewater kayakers, rafters, and stand-up paddlers who have one thing in common: we love to share our passion for the river and outdoors with our friends, customers, and customers who become friends. Our overarching goals are to be the industry’s leading knowledge hub and to stock the highest quality paddlesports equipment. All of this comes with the best customer service in the industry by your side throughout your whole purchase experience.

We realize that purchasing whitewater equipment online can be a daunting task. We aim to make the experience as simple and straightforward as possible with www.coloradokayak.com being open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If you are ever in doubt, just remember that when you get in touch with CKS, you are connecting with a real paddler who knows the gear we carry inside and out. Enjoy our site and see you on the river!
