With every new boat we design, we try to find the missing link in our fleet. We’re very excited for the space the Slick is going to fill as it’s already the 5th flavor of half slice we come out with. For all of you wondering what the differences are here are some facts and thoughts:
Despite its length of 9 ft. the Slick is probably our most agile boat yet. At a width of 27 inches it’s just slightly narrower than the Full House but we kept the edges a touch lower, to give it an even more stable platform. Combined with its high bow rocker and optimized rocker break it becomes extremely playful and it effortlessly sweeps onto all features ahead.
Even though it appears to be similar to the Joker, but the two boats couldn’t have more differences. The Joker is speedy and moving straight forwards like no other. The Slick with its wide bow on the other hand, will stay on top of things and pivot left and right like a champ. It’s certainly one of the most fun ways of running technical, busy whitewater as well as defined big water.
The slicey stern is inspired by the Barracuda, but with about 79 Gal of volume the Slick is obviously much more suited for harder whitewater as well.
The general idea was to combine elements of the Barracuda and the Full House and create the perfect love child of the two.

The Spade Kayaks Full House rounds out our fleet and fills the space for a modern, high rocker creeker coming in at a length of 9’3” and about 95 gallons of volume. The overall width of 26 inches enables us to have a wide and stable platform without getting boxy or susceptible to side currents, curlers and the likes. We tweaked the waterline to strike a comfortable balance between speed, agility, and the ability to get your nose up on that pillow from all angles or skip that nasty hole right into oblivion. This one has your back when things get rough

Kayak Spade Starfire is a modern and lightweight kayak designed specifically for children, teenagers and light paddlers weighing 80 lbs and above. This kayak offers everything you need to have fun on the wild water with a smile on your face. With a balanced rocker and stable hull it provides safety while tackling wild water and learning new skills. Once you've got the skills you need, you can take the Starfire kayak for a romp on the waves, rack up miles on the WW...
Unbeatable also as a fun machine for "adult" riders at the upper limit of carrying capacity.
The Spade Starfire kayak is a shorter river play for small paddlers, which is a slimmer and above all lighter version of the Bliss model. The strong rocker in the front is retained compared to the Bliss model, allowing for a dry-faced ride over holes and rollers. The distinct edges with a flat stern ensures unlimited fun for younger paddlers.
The kayak has a reduced deck height, giving it a volume of just 53 Gal and a weight of just 35 lbs. The Spade Kayaks Starfire thus competes in the league with the well-known Axiom 8.0.
The one-piece seating system connects the seating shell to the floor rail and stabilizing post in the bow of the kayak. A foam wedge at the rear provides the necessary stability. Handles on the bow and stern make the kayak easily portable
