    Thanks for reviewing it I've been waiting 2 weeks for this I have a requirement in inflatable kayaks which is it must track good which it does with the 2 fins .I cannot stand kayaks that swing side to side while paddling it drives me mad .Once again thanks

    Another really great review 👍🏻 Just about to head down to AS this morning to test out the Chelan 155 and the Spinera with my Family - our two sons are 10 and 2, we’ll take the little guy with us in the Chelan but my other son is keen to paddle on his own, how would this suit a 10 year-old tethered to us with a line? Calm water only, not the sea, at least not for a while anyway.

      Hi. Thanks for the positive feedback. I think it would suit those needs perfectly, it’s very nimble on the water. The guys down there will give you the most sound advice though, I’m just keen amateur.

    Great review bud, although I have never sat down in a kayak, you did this in an interesting way that I was interested.👌

    How does it compare to the chelan 120 in rough water ? I’ve got the chelan now but only used it once in fairly calmish water.

      let me put it like this, if i had a budget of £500 and i got this, i’d be very happy. i wouldn’t take it out as far as other boats i’ve had or tried as it too fiesta in the waves. If my budget was bigger i’d get the Chelan every time. The Chelan feels more grown up but both are very good at what they are designed for.

      @@paddleoutlet No toes to tread on, they would be absolutely fine. They know I work with others, too. We’re very modern, it’s like a really healthy, open relationship that benefits us both (me as i get to use great kit and them as they get boosted sales). I’m sure you’ve got stock that they don’t sell too, different brands and such.

    Hi, thanks for the review. I am planning to buy the one-person kayak. How much does it weigh? I can't seem to find this info anywhere.

      Hi, it’s 13kg, there’s a link in n tue description to order from an independent shop that has really great customer service. please mention that you saw the video as this helps when i ask to borrow more boats to review. Enjoy. What part of the country are you?

    Hi mate, great review. I am looking at buying one of these, was wondering what seat do you use as you say the seat supplied isn’t great. Thanks

    • @TheOptimisticAdventurer
      @TheOptimisticAdventurer  Год назад

      It was a generic seat from eBay or Amazon, I just preferred the extra padding and back height.
