Vertical legs that put more weight on the wheels; less on your hands
Sturdy frame and special mounts to reduce chances to damage your hull
Maintenance-free mechanism that is compatible with marine environment
Cool features like kayak specific leg swept profiles and various color options
Here is the matrix of the install base of various kayak designs to date.
Scott, Jim, David, Ric, and Darin: I can't wait to get pictures from each of you to fill in the matrix with actual user pictures!!

We recently released a video explaining some of the key features and benefits of the Freedom Launcher and relate the experience that Will Akers has had on his PA 12. Will installed in April 2023 and has has been using the Freedom Launcher now for 12 months and is a real advocate for the product and the brand. I'm blessed to have him as a customer and a friend. We've had an exciting start to 2024 and look forward to meeting more kayakers in the days ahead!
Here is a link to that YouTube video I mentioned. Until next time, tight lines and stay safe out there - David.
