Jackson Kayak
Kayaks, Paddlers, and Paddling: This is what Jackson Kayak is about. We are a very altruistic/ideal focused group of people with quality, innovation, and “leaving the world a better place” as the core.
Jackson Kayak was born in 2003 with EJ and Tony Lunt as co-founders. We have assembled the best team in the world of people committed to the cause over the past 7 years and are relentless in the pursuit of quality and performance.
We are located in Sparta, TN in our 100,000 square foot facility, in a town of 8,000 people. We have about 120 employees and make products for whitewater, recreational paddling, touring, fishing, accessories, clothing, and even do custom manufacturing for playgrounds, other kayak companies, and more.
We make our plastic kayaks in Sparta, and just about every component as well. Each year we become more self-sufficient in our manufacturing.

Fun Floats- Jackson Kayak signature float bags
After 30 years of float bags looking the same, you wouldn’t expect to find any major innovations in them. Well, enter into the world of Jackson Kayak. Paddling without float bags is not a good idea if you ever swim, might swim, ever had a skirt blow, ever might have a skirt blow, or value your kayak. The Fun Float is a single horseshoe shaped bag that goes behind your rear wall to give you a single bag that will stay in, even in the worst swims, and fill up the entire stern of your kayak. This bag fits the Stars, Funs and many other boats too.

Our Sportiest River Runner- the Fun Runner gives you a stable, comfortable, lightweight river runner that is also a blast to paddle downriver, surf, or zip around from eddy to eddy! This boat is for you if you prefer to stay upright, but you aren’t looking for a tank to run the river in. This is as sporty as we feel we can go and provide the paddler wanting to keep comfort levels to a maximum both mentally and physically. We opted for a medium volume package that will keep you floating on the surface and the boat horizontal, but put a full planing hull on it to provide a super fun surfing platform.
