The Nomad is your go-anywhere vessel, boasting the ultimate combination of speed, stability and maneuverability. It’s fast enough to reach those birds three miles offshore, stable enough to stand up and sight cast at redfish for hours on end, and nimble enough to pluck largemouth out of those backwater honey holes.
LIGHTNING redesigned a classic hull and turned something good into something great. The new hull has the perfect rocker to ride smoothly over open ocean swell and yet still track straight as an arrow. Adding additional flair to the bow of the boat to keep it as quiet as possible while riding through small wind chop and keep you from spooking the fish that you are stalking. Hull stability was improved to allow for better stand up sight casting and an overall more secure feeling out in any conditions.
Ditching the inaccessible front hatch to keep the inside of the hull bone dry on rough days, but with two large tankwells at the bow and stern, there’s plenty of room to store all the gear you’ll need for your next adventure.
Each of the four flush-mounted rod holders comes paired with an attachment point for a leash, so you don’t have to worry about losing your rods in case of an unsolicited swim session.
The oversized transducer pocket beneath the hull provides ample room for even the largest downscan transducers from the best Depth Finders in the industry.
Lastly Installing a Powered Anchor , or Small Electric Motor is a breeze thanks to a built-in mounting location at the stern.
The Strike HD encompasses the ultimate combination of performance, durability and outfitting options. Lightning Kayaks are made of super linear HDPE and utilizes a tri-hull design which offers unparalleled stability. The aluminum frame seat comes with a comfortable breathable padded mesh fabric and 3 seat positions to accommodate kayakers of all sizes. The Strike HD comes standard with custom Marine Mat flooring system to provide a cushioned area to stand while on the water. The Strike HD features a large rear tank well and two hatches, giving you plenty of
storage for a picnic on the beach or an overnight camping trip with the family.
The Strike HD utilizes our Freedom Drive propulsion system. The Freedom Drive simply drops into a pair of secure drive locks, and with a push of the feet, the fins move side-to-side and propel you forward. This side-to-side
movement mimics how a penguin's wings allow it to glide through the water. We designed a recess in the hull to allow the Freedom Drive's fins to tuck up and out of the way, allowing for almost zero draft in shallow water, such as when you're launching or landing.
We designed the Strike from the ground up by combining our favorite design features in the kayak industry and improving on the common shortcomings.
