    The I Trek 9 looks awesome. Probably not good for fishing. A big fish would poke a hole in it. Thanks for doing the Lynx demo. Can’t wait to see the Pelican demo.

      It would take something along the lines of a shark. The hobie inflatables feel like hog skin. Very durable. Tougher than high-end pull behind tube and such.

    Hello Alex are you going man. That is a nice Hobie kayak man. I like how it turns on a dime. I wish I had a narrow foot so that my foot can fit through those pedal straps like your foot does. I noticed out your foot didn't have any issues at all fittings through. I have very very extremely wide feet 6 EEEEEE wide with very fat wide toe that are equally straight across making my foot very very wide at 6 1/2 inches wide from my big toe to my lil toe. I tried to fit my foot through those straps & the straps get caught up between my third and fourth toe on my foot which is very uncomfortable. I think if my toes were at a 45 degree angle like everybody else's toes I think it might fit through those straps but with my toes being straight across there's no way it will fit through those straps. It also don't help that my toes are fat and wide too. These are the problems I go through for having very fat wide toe that are straight across. Last time I try to demo a Hobie kayak the salesman was shocked that my foot was 6 1/2 inches wide and it wouldn't fit through the straps for me to demo the kayak. But the one thing about having a extremely wide foot is I have great balance though. Wish I was there to demo the kayak with you man. Thank you for sharing this video.

    Built like a surf board. From the inside out. It has a 350 pound capacity. 11 feet long 3 feet wide. Just an over priced Pelican. For the price I take the Pelican. Good video though. I noted that the bottom is a different color than the top. Is it welded together like the Pelican.
