2026 NRS Pulsar Packraft

Whether you’re a hiker, skier, biker, paddler or merely curious what the packrafting buzz is about, with the Pulsar it’s never been easier to add water to your next adventure. Smaller tubes optimize packability and maneuverability, and our Vertex Outfitting delivers customizable control and comfort on flats and wild waters.

Features

• 70D dual-sided TPU-coated seat is ultra-durable, highly packable, and much less susceptible to over inflation in the heat or direct sun.
• TIZIP® stern closure creates fully waterproof, easy-to-access storage and decreases deflation time.
• Self-bailing floor continually releases water, increasing maneuverability in splashier waters.
• Overlapping, RF-welded seams are further sealed with interior taping to create an incredibly strong mechanical bond for fail-proof air retention.
• Highly durable PVC-free nylon has an internal and external TPU coating, increasing air retention in case of abrasion.
• TPU-coated nylon is easily repairable, extending product life.
• Vertex Three Point Thigh Straps and Backband provide customizable comfort and control in a lightweight, minimalist design.
• Custom aluminum hardware and anti-spin aluminum D-rings provide secure attachment points for thigh straps and on-water essentials.
• Leafield D7M valves reduce packed size and weight, provide reliable, hassle-free inflation, and are easy to maintain.
• Tubes feature two internal, welded self-fabric lash tabs for securing gear and maintaining optimal balance on multiday trips.
• 1" nylon webbing loops in the bow and stern permit the addition of a safety line and provide additional attachment points for personal gear.
• For optimum performance—especially with heavier loads or bigger whitewater—use a pump to bring your NRS packraft up to pressure. We recommend the K-Pump Mini (Item # 80075.01).
• Includes packraft, seat, backband, thigh straps, inflation bag, inflation blow tube and repair kit.
• Three-year retail warranty; one-year warranty on TIZIP closure.

Note: Long exposure to sun and high temperatures can increase air pressure, leading to overinflation. Overinflation can damage seams or worse. We suggest bleeding off air pressure or fully deflating packraft and seat in these conditions.
