Slate River Kayaks
Slate River Kayaks is small company dedicated to producing
the highest quality, best performing two-person whitewater
kayaks available. Based in Madison, Wisconsin, the company
was formed by two whitewater enthusiasts who wanted a tandem
kayak specially designed for the steep creeks of
Michigan's Upper Pennisula.
Our Kayak
We sell only one boat design, the Nyami Nyami. Named after the African
river god, the Nyami Nyami is a 2-person whitewater designed for
performance. Heavily rockered, the boat turns very quickly for excellent
steep creeking and surfs surprisingly easy. The expedition weight
hull is extremely rugged and is capable of taking incredible abuse.
