At Umiak, we offer a one-of-a-kind shopping experience that allows you to try out equipment before making a purchase. Unlike online shopping, you can test our products in person at our Stowe Store or schedule a demo appointment in Richmond, giving you the chance to ensure the gear meets your specific needs and preferences.

During the summer, our demo pond located behind the Stowe Store is open for you to test paddle a variety of kayaks, canoes, or standup paddleboards, providing a hands-on experience with different watercraft to help you make an informed decision when choosing the perfect vessel for your needs.
