Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame Inflatable Kayak Review

Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame Inflatable Kayak Feature

• Built-in aluminum ribs define the bow and stern and improves tracking
• Three layers of material for extreme puncture resistance
• Preassembled at the factory; simply unfold, inflate, and attach the seat
• High support, adjustable padded seat provides comfort for hours of paddling
• Looks and paddles similar to a rigid hard-shell kayak with the portability of an inflatable

A hybrid of a folding-frame kayak and an inflatable kayak, the AdvancedFrame kayak is built for performance and trackability. The hull includes built-in aluminum ribs that define the bow and stern to improve tracking. As a result, the kayak slices through the water like a knife, helping it rival the trackability of hard-shell kayaks. Long hours on the water feel like minutes thanks to the high-support, adjustable padded seat. Plus, the kayak is extremely tough, with three layers of double-coated ripstop material for added puncture resistance. Other features include plenty of onboard storage for extended trips, advanced inflation valves, bungee deck lacing, molded rubber handles, a neoprene paddle guard, a D-ring tie down, and a skeg tracking fin. A breeze to set up--simply unfold the kayak, inflate it, and attach the seat--the kayak comes with a carrying duffel bag, folding seat, and repair kit.

The Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame® is a hybrid of a folding frame kayak and an inflatable kayak. Its bow slices through water like a knife and rivals the trackability of hard-shell kayaks. The stern acts as a skeg, increasing the tracking performance. It uses extremely durable materials and high-end components. There is plenty of on-board storage room for extended trips and it sets up in just a few minutes.
