Foldable vs. Inflatable vs. Modular Kayaks
It’s clear that we all want to get out on the water faster, so why not do it with a portable kayak? Portable kayaks are the perfect way to spend less time getting ready to have fun and more time actually doing it! Three options for speeding up your outdoor process are a foldable, inflatable, or modular kayak. All of these options are great choices depending on what you are looking for. Oru Kayak has created an origami-like kayak that folds right into a bag that you can carry anywhere. Advanced Elements has perfected the durability and style of an inflatable kayak needing just a pump to make your way to your next adventure. Lastly, Point 65 Sweden innovated a Snap-Tap technology that allows you to take apart your kayak in sections for an easier process all around. Find out which kayak is right for you!
Oru Kayaks
Oru Kayaks have created some of the most innovative and portable boats in the world. The foldable kayak came to life with an origami structure in mind. A foldable kayak from Oru Kayaks gives you the freedom to go anywhere with your boat.
These packable and compact boats need no roof rack- instead, they easily can be store in the back of your trunk, garage and can even be checked on a flight. They are lightweight, starting at about 20 lbs, so they are easily accessible for everyone!
Advanced Elements
Advanced Elements is a great option when considering an Inflatable Kayak. They have been in the game for over a decade creating the world’s first Hybrid Inflatable Kayak. They have taken their innovation and refined it to what we see today.
The inflatable kayaks feature unstoppable durability, portability, and performance. These boats can handle almost anything from calm waters to far distances to multiple day trips and whitewater! All you have to do is pick which boat is right for you!
Point 65 Sweden
Point 65 has created a new way of kayaking with the modular kayak. They have created an innovative Snap-Tap system that lets your kayak snap apart and re-assemble in seconds! These kayaks are strong, stable, and safe.
An extra feature of Point 65 kayaks is that you don’t have to decide right away whether you want a solo or tandem kayak! When you are ready to add a friend to your exploring adventures, just snap on a mid-section to a solo kayak and you have a tandem!
