Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2022
Cons: Could use more padding on bottom support/floor support. Only takes a certain amount of pressure in the bladders, but cannot tell what you are putting in as No pump with gauge is provided, no oars provided. Unstable on anything over a 6" to a foot of chop. Bigger waves, the non-rigid structure bobs around. $600 very high for this Kayak. You can get a hardsided unit for half that and with no pump or oar, the price is just too much.
The kayak shell is fine. The air bladders are unreliable and possibly dangerous. What would the outcome have been if this was in open water or if there was even a little bit of chop.

Der Aufbau geht schnell (10 min) und ist auch alleine ohne großen Kraftaufwand zu schaffen. Bei den ersten Malen braucht vielleicht man etwas länger. Man sollte beim Aufbau aufpassen, dass der Boden und die Luftschläuche einigermaßen mittig in der Boothülle liegen, da sonst die Fahreigenschaften etwas leiden, aber das kann man leicht korrigieren. Auch das einpacken geht schnell und die Tasche ist groß genug, sodass alles einfach wieder zu verstauen ist.
Da das Kayak, wie alle Aufblaskayaks, relativ breit ist, sollte man darauf achten ein längeres Paddel zu nehmen, damit man nicht an die Bootseiten schlägt. Ich komme mit 2,3m Paddellänge gut zurecht.
Im Boot ist nur wenig Platz für Gepäck. Es gibt als Ausgleich vorne und hinten Verschnürungen auf dem Boot, wo man zusätzliche Dinge unterbringen kann. Für mehrtägige Touren, bei denen man alles Gepäck selbst transportiert, ist das Kayak aber daher nicht so gut geeignet.
Wenn man übergewichtig ist und einen sehr breiten Hintern hat, sollte man beachten, dass der Sitz seitlich durch die Luftschläuche begrenzt ist. Umgekehrt bekommen große Menschen besimmt Probleme mit der Beinfreiheit. Für mich mit 1.7m ist es ideal, aber ich denke so ab 1,85m wird es eng für die Beine.
Ich habe mich vor allem wegen des geringen Gewichtes für dieses Modell entschieden. Obwohl ich nicht besonders kräftig bin, kann ich das aufgebaute Boot mit allem Zubehör alleine auf der Schulter zum Wasser tragen. Die mitgelieferte Tasche hat außerdem Rucksackträger, sodass man das Boot auch gut auf längeren Wegen (z. B. auch in Bus und Bahn) bis zum Gewässer transportieren kann. Eingepackt ist die Tasch etwa 85x35x40 cm groß.
Sul libro di istruzioni c'è scritto che questo problema può essere dovuto al fatto che il pavimento non è ben centrato. Tuttavia, provando a sistemare il pavimento nelle varie direzioni si ha lo stesso problema. Tra l'altro se il problema fosse dovuto alla posizione del pavimento il kayak dovrebbe girare a sinistra o a destra a seconda della posizione del pavimento. Invece gira sempre a destra. Ne consegue che è un problema di fabbrica o di assemblaggio.
Di questo problema ne risentono pesantemente le prestazioni: se con il canotto da 100 € riuscivo a tenere una velocità media di 5 km/h in condizioni ideali, con questo da 620 € non riesco ad andare oltre i 4 km/h: inaccettabile.
EDIT:
Probabilmente ho avuto sfortuna a ricevere un modello difettoso. Il venditore comunque si è dimostrato affidabile, rimborsando pienamente il prodotto e senza accampare pretesti per non concedere il reso.
So if you like a wet bum get this one.
If anyone knows how to solve this issue please let me know. I have a very expensive kayak sitting in my garage that I would like to get more use out of (without sitting in a puddle).
