Review on Kayak Intex Challenger K2 351 cm, green/black by Franciszka Piasecka ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

Reliable, simple kayak. All competitors are much more expensive, the price tag starts from 18-20 thousand and this is without oars and a pump, but here 10 thousand for everything! But do not think that this is a cheap Chinese G for one time. The cruising speed of this vessel for a beginner will be 3.2-3.5 km / h, and for an experienced one it will be 4 km / h, this is almost the same as the famous "Pike". In terms of reliability, a lot of reviews that it does not tear, does not break. If you do not pump of course. People even manage to float on it, although it is inconvenient for this. Unlike the classic inflatable boat, it's just super-fast)))) It is pumped up simply and quickly, only take a closer look at the pump, it is easy to break it. On promotional photos it has an acid green color, in fact it is a normal color (see photo). Also in advertising it seems that she has a high landing, but in fact you sit low. I recommend immediately taking a rope and tying it to the bottom on the bow (there is a special "eye") to moor the vessel. P. And the most important thing! Do not attach the keel (fin) on dry land! Lower it into the water first, otherwise someone will definitely sit in it and it will break!

Pros
  • Faster than a boat. Ideal for walking with your spouse or child or friend or dog (don't forget the dog life jacket). Super price to ride on the water.
Cons
  • The pump is weak, you need to carefully treat it so as not to break it. The holes for connecting the paddle components are not drilled, but punched, resulting in terrible burrs on the inside, which should be filed before assembly. Low landing and not very long oars, it is more difficult to row. The oars are not adjustable in length.
