Esquif Canoes - Pocket Canyon T-Formex
$2,099.00
$1,999.00
This compact, playful tandem canoe is ideally suited for short whitewater canoe trips that do not demand the length and cargo capacity of a larger (and heavier) tripping canoe. The Pocket Canyon also performs as well as many dedicated whitewater canoes used for day trips. This allows the canoe to serve double duty as both whitewater playboat, and technical river runner.
The Pocket Canyon’s flared hull maintains a dry ride even in large choppy waves and the rockered ends, with a progressive chine, provides a stable carving edge ideal for catching eddies. Fast, stable and manoeuverable, the Pocket Canyon has all the performance features you’ll need to tackle exciting day river features, whether out for the day or on brief wilderness get away.

Material
T-Formex Lite
T-Formex is a high-tech ABS plastic laminate engineered for durability and structural memory, making it an ideal material for canoes. Constructed in layers akin to a “sandwich,” T-Formex includes foam for buoyancy and rigidity, a vinyl layer for protection and integrity, and a special outer layer that ensures abrasion and UV resistance. The sheets are molded to create various canoe shapes, tailored for specific uses, enhancing strength where needed. T-Formex is inherently buoyant, providing crucial safety features by preventing sinking if capsized, and is superior to other materials like 3-layer and thermoformed canoes due to its resistance to heat and UV damage. Although heavier than composite materials such as fiberglass and Kevlar, T-Formex outperforms in durability, reliability, and performance, making it suitable for a wide range of paddling environments.
