Quality whitewater and outdoor gear made in Tennessee

On the water or off, we've got the gear for your next adventure.

Our cam straps are made with Rollercam® buckles, designed to minimize friction when adjusting and stay secure longer. The barrel allows them to roll smoothly and tighten with ease. These buckles, combined with polyester webbing, have a soft hand feel and rugged durability. Polyester webbing is more UV resistant than standard webbing material (polypropylene), dries quicker, and lasts longer (won't dry out and crackle). And because we believe that gear should be multi-functional and adaptable, most of our straps come with a sewn gear loop on them. We offer a variety of styles that feature handles or multiple loops and a few have none at all, so you can find the right strap for what you need. We value quality, function, and durability in our products, and with these straps you get all three.

This Saturday we’re pumping you up at the Ocoee! We’ll have an inflation station with an outfitter quality blower at the Middle put-in in support of the Ladies Take the Ocoee event. Afterwards, you can check out the awesome after party at the Bus Bar where there will be a raffle with some seriously rad prizes. Hope to catch y’all there!

Thank you to all that have reached out. We are ok and all of our friends have been accounted for. Knoxville did not receive the amount of rain that surrounding areas did, and TVA has been managing the massive influx of water.

One thing to know is that the communication system in western North Carolina and East Tennessee is still very poor. Most roads and bridges in Asheville and the surrounding areas are shut down or damaged as well. Words cannot accurately describe the magnitude of how bad these areas were hit.
Right now there are countless ways to help, either in-person giving assistance to those in need or donations online. If you are able to assist in any way please do so. Just know that if you headed to these areas make sure you are well supplied with gas, food, and water. Gas is not available in Asheville. This is just the start of a long rebuilding process and we all need to help. Stay safe out there…

We didn’t win an Emmy this year, but prepared a thank you speech anyway. Thank you thank you @americanwhitewater and all the volunteers for putting together another fantastic Gauley Fest! Big thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth. We love each and every one of y’all and appreciate the support.

Thank you @endlessriveradventures for an A++ ride down the upper, shuttle and laughs.
