STAR CORPORATION has started handling MRS packrafts (We are on the back cover of the catalog!)

Our partner, STAR CORPORATION, has started handling the MRS packrafts that we use. This is very reassuring. We used the tandem packraft Barracuda for two years during the NISEKO EXPEDITION, and there is no doubt that its high performance was one of the reasons for our success.
And it is an honor that a photo of us paddling downriver together is used on the back cover of the Star Trading MRS catalog. I'm very happy with this wonderful photo.
I had the opportunity to test several of the latest models, and I was amazed by MRS's attention to detail. The evolution of packrafts is unstoppable! Don't miss this chance☆
