Best Packraft for Experienced Paddlers? Alpacka Mage Review & On-Water Test

If you’re an experienced whitewater kayaker looking to step into the world of packrafting, the Alpacka Mage might just be your dream boat. The Alpacka Raft Mage — a lightweight whitewater packraft designed for intermediate to advanced paddlers tackling Class III–IV rivers. It’s the most kayak-like of Alpacka’s lightweight range, ideal for remote backcountry and canyon trips. Chris explains who this boat is for, runs through its key features, and takes it for an on-water test on the Goobarragandra River. #Packraft #AlpackaRaft #Whitewater #Kayaking #Mage #Packrafting #BackcountryAdventures Presented by Chris Russell Filmed and edited by Pat Ryan Products seen in this video: Alpacka Raft Mage Whitewater Packraft https://www.tomsoutdoors.com.au/colle...
