The Nomad is by far the most respected boat in the creeking World as it has tackled pretty much anything out there. Let's just talk facts and no hype.
Pat Keller won the Green race in it as well as set a new course record, be the first to break the 5 minute mark, and ultimately the Greenman. In the same year it won every major creek race in the United States. Homestake, Green, Burnt Ranch, Fishcreek.
All the while it racked up hundreds of first descents. While most companies were trying to keep up, the Nomad was out raising the bar. You must paddle this boat if you are creeker. Fast, boofs HUGE, unreal initial and secondary stability, spins quick, rolls easy. All you could want in performance.
And the Nomad has a new seat! Low profile back for the largest possible stern access, three points of seat adjustment, and the bow step out wall. This boat is by far the most recognized name in creek boats. Those that paddle them know, those who don't have just not tried it yet. Facts are facts. Specs:
The Nomad continues this tradition with the unmatched safety features and rock-solid design that has made all of them winners. except this time we've busted out two different sizes so anyone, big or small, can get a piece of the action. We've added some length to better handle big water and downriver bombing, but it's still short and quick enough to bounce down the hairball runs you don't tell you mom about.
There are a full six rescue attachment points, two of which are mounted at an angle just behind the cockpit for easy reach while seated, and so your buddy has a great place to hang on when you're delivering him from an out-of-boat experience.
