Venture canoes at the OCF

Venture Canoes are excited to attend the Open Canoe Festival once again, and will be bringing a fleet of demos with them, including the most whitewater capable, traditional PE open canoe on the market, the Afon! If you want to feel like a superhero on familiar runs, or take on rapids you previously thought impossible, then the Afon is the answer – just check out this footage of it on the closing rapid of the Tummel in Scotland.

Try this simple yet effective feature from Venture Canoes at Open Canoe Festival

Experience the entire Venture Canoes range at this year’s Open Canoe Festival, all of which feature Recessed Gunwales to ensure unloading and loading your roof rack, trailer, or storage rack is no longer a bone-shaking, frustration-filled event, and that your paddle and fingers are saved from those bumps and scrapes.
