Nigel Foster is an experienced kayak designer, ocean paddler and kayak instructor. He designs elegant, responsive and purposeful sea kayaks - The Silhouette, Legend and Shadow.

 

The Shadow is a performance sea kayak with increased stability and solid secondary stability for crisp edged turns. The larger "keyhole" cockpit allows easy access making the Shadow and the paddler seeking a reassuring craft.

 

Carrying capacity for expeditions is excellent, with loading through the two large oval hatches and the "day-hatch" standard on all of Foster's designs. This kayak has become a favorite amongst instructors for its ease of making clear on-water demonstrations of paddling skills.

 

The Shadow is proudly manufactured by Seaward under licence from Nigel.
