Mission XStream 420
The Xstream 420 is Mission’s brand new, top of the line
cruising kayak that combines the reliability and stability of
a sit-on-top kayak, with the speed efficiency and comfort
of a traditional sea or touring kayak. The hull has been
extensively redesigned to allow smoother and faster
performance through the water making paddling far more
efficient. There is also plenty of storage space for cameras,
mobile phones, warm clothing and any other equipment you
might need.

Mission Inspiration (Womens) PFD
No longer will female paddlers have to put up with ill-fitting PFDs.
Mission’s newly released PFD, the ‘Inspiration’ has been specifically
designed to fit the female shape, bumps curves and dips included!
Perfectly designed chest foam plates optimise flotation so you can be
confident you will be safe while the ergonomically designed shape and
six adjustment points ensure a comfortable secure fit. The ‘Inspiration’
features an innovative internal buckle system which will take pressure
off the zip. This means that the jacket won’t burst open under stress
making it extremely tough and will keep you safer than ever.
Sizes – XS/S, M/L and XL/XXL
Colours - Available in Safety Gold and Blue

Single Advance Frame
Advanced Elements
Convertible Advance Frame
The Advanced Frame Single Kayak is a hybrid of a folding frame
kayak and an inflatable kayak. Its bow slices through water like a knife
and rivals the track-ability of hard-shell kayaks. The stern acts as a
skeg, increasing the tracking performance. It uses multiple air chambers
and is constructed of extremely durable materials with aluminium struts
and triple layer PVC tarpaulin. There is on-board storage room for
extended trips. It sets up in just a few minutes with a standard double
action pump and is compact enough to fit into a conveniently supplied
duffel bag (16kg boat and bag) to easily take along on a weekend
adventure or overseas destination. Ideal for launches, yachts, motor
homes, or kayakers wanting extra portability. No roof racks necessary.
This model can be fitted with a spray skirt (not included).
The Advanced Frame Convertible is ideal for couples or families.
It can be paddled easily by a single paddler, or by tandem paddlers
and some extra children along for the ride. The kayak can be set up
in three modes, open deck, closed single deck or closed double deck
(spray skirts and deck conversion kits are accessories). The open deck
is great as a fishing and dive kayak, due to excellent stability, flotation
and low sides.
It has the same construction as the Single Advance frame. The
Convertible sets up in just a few minutes with a standard double
action pump and is compact enough to fit into a conveniently supplied
duffel bag for a weekend adventure or overseas destination. Ideal for
launches, yachts, motor homes, or kayakers wanting extra portability.
No roof racks necessary.
