Gradient

This is the ultimate creek boat for those runs that make your stomach drop as fast as the river. As usual, we have put all of our expertise and Team D development into this boat and it shows. Recessed deck area for a throw rope, bow adn stern broach pins, roto-molded I-beam wall, non-trip chines and radical rocker for those tight moves and micro-eddies: all part of Dagger's new creeking penomenon. The Gradient's short length, high volume and fast acceleration make this boat ideal for extreme fun in extreme conditions.
User reviews
I liked the Gradient but it was a Meh kayak to me. I would be excited to be in the water but not excited about the Gradient as my chosen craft. I spent a winter in the Gradient but let it go when spring came. Don't get me wrong it preformed great for what I needed at the time but in the end it just did't tickle my fancy.
Review
This is the best!!! for me:))
Gradient... oh, yes!
This is a real creaker. Fast, turns on a dime and so on...
It's a real whitewater tank.
This autumn I've been riding the Gradient on the Paratunka river in Kamchatka.
My friends told me that it's a very old boat and not very good. But... with the Pyrania Inazone 230, Zelezny Spunt & Rainbow Zulu, we had great problems on rocks... The Zelesny Igo: wrecked. Gradient: forever!
What can I say... If you want to creek - the Gradient is for you. The outfitting is simple, but very very comfortable after some tuning.
Speed - very good.
Stability - good.
A good, balanced boat for hard rivers.
