The Ultimate Sit-Inside Kayak for Kids and Petite Paddlers

A perfect first kayak with adjustable footrests to grow with the paddler

The Prodigy XS is built for kids or smaller-framed adults; it offers confidence-building stability, comfort, and performance. The sit-in design protects the paddler from the elements and lowers the kayak’s center of gravity to further enhance stability.

Kids will also stay on the water longer in the Prodigy XS because it is fitted with premium outfitting not usually found on youth kayaks. Additionally, integrated floatation foam makes this kayak very safe.

  • Thick, adjustable seat and padded cockpit rim
  • Quick-adjust foot rests for growth spurt adjustability
  • Very easy to enter/exit
  • Foam bulkhead offers built-in buoyancy and enhances water safety - it is a feature that is often omitted from lower cost kids kayaks
  • Designed for lakes, ponds, slow-moving rivers and calm coastal waters
  • Works well with the Perception Universal Paddle (sold separately)

This kayak is great! Only about 25lbs and my 11 yr old was able to get the hang of it immediately and was able to quickly maneuver it around the bay. He said it was very stable and faster on the water than his previous kayak -a 10’ Eddyline. For reference my kid is about 115 lbs and 5’ tall. The kayak has a drain plug which makes for easy cleaning afterwards. I figure he should be able to use this for a few years before he grows out of it.

the kayak is quite small. I was afraid that if it went over, I might not be able to get my legs out and would be trapped. however, it's so light that I can pick it up by myself (a 75 year old woman) and it handles well. It steers fast and straight. Overall I like it but it very bare essentials. there is no hold to place your keys, phone, camera. the seat is very small. this is a kayak for a child. I would advise against adults buying it.

The light weight and shapely hull will be great for my kids when the weather warms up. Both kayaks arrived with only very minor scuffs and scrapes. No dents or gouges.

I'd been shopping for a small kayak for a few months, and this one takes the cake. It's the perfect size for a smaller woman (I'm 5'1) and light enough that I can load it on my suv rack on my own. It goes very fast in the water but its a little challenging to get the hang of balance. If you aren't careful you might tip.Overall I'm extremely happy with this purchase and will definitely recommend this kayak for any beginner.
