Our Adventure Collector is a great way for customers to share their experiences with us. You can upload a photo, mark the location, and even give us a short description…

For those who don’t know, we offer four Go Play Days (paid workdays) a year for all employees to get outside and learn more about our products through personal experience. Of course, it doesn’t take much pushing to get ACK-ers outside.

What comes to mind when you think of January activities? New Year celebrations?

It's a bit painful to admit, but summer is really over. It was cold this morning (only in Texas would 68° be considered cold) and while that may have some thinking it's time to retire the kayaks for the season, this is not at all the case!

This year is our 10th annual Spring Demo Days and at this rate, it's panning out to be our best yet! This year, we are honored to be able to represent and carry some of the leading kayak brands the industry offers including: Feel Free, Old Town, Viking, Wilderness Systems and of course Hobie. Revolutionary moves are being implemented in the business including the release of Old Town's Predator XL Minn Kota and Hobie's Revolution 16. Here are just a few of the new Kayaks that we plan on showing off.

Believe it or not, summer is just around the corner. If you’ve thought about getting in to stand up paddleboarding (SUP) now is great time to buy a board so that you don't miss any of those early warm days.

A few months back, I wrote a short piece that caused a bit of a stir. Apparently “storing your kayak for the winter” didn’t resound well with many, especially those residing in more temperate regions (tongue in cheek of course).

There is no doubt that Stand Up Paddleboards (SUPs) are the latest craze in the paddling world but it’s easy to see why — the boards look slick, are easy to lug around and offer both a unique workout and a new perspective on paddling. In fact, SUPs have gained so much popularity over the last few years that they have been turning the heads of some top kayak manufacturers.

If you've been following along with ACK social media or regularly reading our blog you've probably heard about our warehouse move. If not, this past weekend we began, and mostly completed, the moving process into a new 30,000 square foot warehouse (a 10,000 ft increase).
