Hobie i11S inflation and Test Ride

(1/4) > >>

rogerdodger:
just my second inflation test but looks like just under 5 minutes from opening the hatch to being rigged up and ready to go...the inflated hull is easy to carry which is something I was hoping for.   hitting the water Sunday to test the stability, do a bit of swimming and self recovery...

this is a 40 second time lapse of the inflation/set-up:

Ling ling, Herro?:
Cool video. I'm excited about this kayak. We have one at the shop that I have lots of plans for.

Tinker:
Looking forward to reading about your first time on the water, Roger.  Saw one at Waxer's and was impressed with how it looked and how sturdy it seemed.

Fishcat:
Cool hobie, Roger!

first thing I did was walk around on the deck and it is amazing how rigid it feels...

it is also great to just pick up the hull and carry it around...
