Description
Thigh straps are essential equipment for whitewater paddling, allowing you to control the roll of your packraft with a flick of your hips. These four-point straps transfer your body movements directly to the boat, putting you in control instead of simply going along for the ride.
Use the thigh straps with or without a back band, spray deck, and/or inflatable floor insert.
Installed weight including attachment points (approximate): 130 grams (4.6 oz)
Included in this kit:
- Pre-scored fabric parts for two thigh straps and eight attachment points
- Eight G-clips for adjusting and removing the thigh straps
Tools required for assembly and installation:

- Scissors
- Marker pen
- Parchment paper (i.e. non-stick baking paper)
Assembly and installation instructions are posted here.
Note: thigh straps are now included with each Atlin, Skeena, and Telkwa kit (no need to purchase separately).
