The AirVolution Kayak is a full drop-stitch kayak that has been designed with a low profile
A rigid high-pressure drop-stitch kayak unlike any other, the AirVolution™ is a streamlined high-performance kayak with paddling performance that rivals that of a hard-shell kayak. Featuring an open deck design for ease of entry, the AirVolution™ uses extremely durable materials and features many high-end components such as a high-back comfortable seat, bungee deck lacing for gear stowage, and heavy-duty grab handles. Simply unfold, inflate and you’re ready for your next adventure!
It’s ideal for heavier paddlers who want rigidity and speed, but also want stability.
It’s comfortable for paddlers up to about 6’2″, but could accommodate taller paddlers with bent legs.
At 17.7kg, you would need to be reasonably strong to carry it, although the bag with wheels helps with that.
Advanced Elements have included a cushioned, high-back seat for your comfort.
It has multiple straps to adjust the angle of support.
There is also an inflatable foot brace included for lower back support.
The performance on the water of the AirVolution kayak is very impressive. The sleek, rigid hull, combined with the deep fin (removable for shallow water) allow the kayak to glide effortlessly through the water.
If you are lightweight, try putting in less pressure to let the kayak sit lower in the water – this will reduce the wind affect.
The Airvolution kayak comes with a bag about the size of a small suitcase and weighs only 17.7kg.
The bag has plenty of space for the pump and a side pocket for your paddle (sold separately).
Not only are there backpack straps on the bag, there are also wheels, so it’s easy to get it to and from the water.
Although the AirVolution kayak is a sit-in kayak, it has a nice, wide-open cockpit.
This makes it very easy to get in and out of, and great for taking kids and dogs.
Note that you can NOT use a spray skirt with this kayak.
The Airvolution Kayak is very stable and extremely durable, making it excellent for fishing.
The wide open cockpit gives you easy access to your gear.
The stability really helps if you want to take your dog(s) kayaking.
The wide open cockpit gives them plenty of space.
The drop-stitch material is as tough as it gets – you don’t need to worry about claws.
Drop-stitch is about as tough as it gets when it comes to inflatable kayaks.
It has to be tough, to withstand the high pressure.
If you are going to be encountering submerged objects, or taking a dog or doing some fishing, you don’t need to worry about scratches or punctures.
The AirVolution kayak comes with a hand pump that has a double action for filling the kayak with air at low pressure, then can be switched over to single action to get to high pressure.
The kayak also comes with a 12V pump for quick inflation at low pressure, but you have to switch over to the hand pump to get the pressure above 1 PSI.
