Moulded in the UK, the Aon combines Palm's expertise in equipment and outfitting with Dagger's proven heritage in whitewater kayak design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePronounced \u003cem\u003e“ain”\u003c\/em\u003e, like \u003cem\u003e“rain”\u003c\/em\u003e, Aon is Irish for \u003cstrong\u003e“one”\u003c\/strong\u003e. The idea is simple: this is the one boat you need for progression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Aon bridges the gap between traditional river runners and modern performance kayaks. It offers the confidence and predictability you want from a river running boat, but with the speed, edge control and responsiveness to encourage you to start exploring more dynamic lines and features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ewide planing hull\u003c\/strong\u003e carries impressive speed while remaining predictable and controlled, while the \u003cstrong\u003ehigh bow rocker\u003c\/strong\u003e rises easily over eddy lines, holes and river features. A wide stern helps maintain stability and speed, while the crisp rocker break, tapered tail and defined rails make it easy to change direction, slice across waves and load the boat when you want to make a move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor paddlers looking to progress, this makes the Aon an extremely versatile proposition. Catch more waves, snap into more eddies, carry more speed and start discovering lines that might not have seemed possible in a more traditional river runner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAction+ Outfitting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis listing is for the \u003cstrong\u003eAction+ outfitting\u003c\/strong\u003e, the more performance focused version of the Aon. It is designed to give the paddler a more connected, supportive fit and improved control of the boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe durable, position adjustable thermoformed seat is combined with adjustable thigh braces and Contour Lite padding, including hip pads and a ratchet adjustable backband. A volume-adjustable Contour Ergo bulkhead footrest completes the setup, providing the support and connection needed when you're asking more from the kayak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor us, this is the Aon specification we'd particularly recommend to paddlers who already have some whitewater experience and are looking for a boat that can grow with their paddling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy We Like the Palm x Dagger Aon\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe're particularly pleased to see this collaboration being \u003cstrong\u003emoulded here in the UK\u003c\/strong\u003e. Both Palm and Dagger have long standing reputations within whitewater paddling, and bringing those two names together to produce a genuinely modern kayak here in Britain is something we're very happy to support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Aon also makes a lot of sense as a progression boat. Rather than being a highly specialised performance kayak, it has been designed to give paddlers the confidence to experiment while retaining the accessibility and predictability needed for everyday river running.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs always, we'd recommend talking to us if you're unsure which size or outfitting specification is right for you. We've got extensive experience with whitewater kayaks and are always happy to offer honest, personal advice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUK-moulded Palm x Dagger collaboration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to bridge traditional river running and modern performance kayaking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh bow rocker for running over holes, eddy lines and river features\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide planing hull for speed, stability and predictable control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTapered tail and crisp rails for dynamic turns and slicing across waves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide stern for stability and speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAction+ performance-focused outfitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable thermoformed seat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContour Lite seat pad and hip pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContour Lite backrest with ratchet adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable thigh braces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThigh-brace-mounted backrest ratchets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolume-adjustable Contour Ergo bulkhead footrest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 anodised aluminium grab handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinicell foam pillar buoyancy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGear loops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutfitting kit included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalm x Dagger Aon Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eAon Medium\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e263 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e68 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCockpit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e90 x 49 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVolume\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e297 litres\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecommended paddler weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e63–91 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBoat weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e20.5 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutfitting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eAction+\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalm x Dagger Aon – One boat for progression.\u003c\/strong\u003e Fast, predictable and capable, with the performance-focused outfitting to keep you connected when you're ready to push your paddling further.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dagger","offers":[{"title":"M \/ Green Smoke","offer_id":55217243685191,"sku":"DG-AON-AC-M.GR\/SM.","price":1249.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"M \/ Blue Smoke","offer_id":55217243717959,"sku":"DG-AON-AC-M.BL\/SM.","price":1249.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"M \/ Red","offer_id":55217243750727,"sku":"DG-AON-AC-M.Rd.","price":1249.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/5970\/0295\/files\/palm_x_dagger_aon_m_action_whitewater_kayak_colour_choices_ea0b50c5-5ca7-4d76-a15e-653ba8b15cac.jpg?v=1790935557","url":"https:\/\/roho.co.uk\/products\/palm-x-dagger-aon-action-whitewater-kayak","provider":"Robin Hood Watersports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
