Redefine whitewater performance with the Rodeo Self-Bailing PVC Kayak—Kokopelli’s most advanced packraft yet
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"This thing absolutely charges. It’s like paddling a whitewater hardshell but with all the portability of a packraft. The Kevlar sidewalls and aggressive rocker make it bombproof and super responsive—perfect for Class IV+."
When the river gets rowdy, we trust the Kokopelli Rodeo Self-Bailing PVC Kayak to keep us in the flow and in control. Born from the legacy of Kokopelli’s 2017 performance raft and reborn in 2024 with cutting-edge materials, the Rodeo is built for expert paddlers ready to push boundaries. Whether you're punching through Class IV+ whitewater or threading technical lines, the Rodeo thrives on precision and adrenaline.
At its core, the Rodeo is driven by Advanced Whitewater Design—a 5-panel construction with vertical I-Beam inflatable flooring and aggressive rocker shaping that delivers edge-to-edge agility and secondary stability that feels intuitive. Reinforced Kevlar™ sidewalls and an 840D Kevlar floor stand up to sharp rocks and hard hits, while a 21in TiZip zipper adds crucial gear access and storage for expedition missions. With venturi drain holes, repositioned inflation valves, and a thigh-strap-ready platform, the Rodeo is more than a packraft—it's a hard-shell challenger built for the future of whitewater.
