Before You Buy an Inflatable Kayak, Watch This

Inflatable kayaks can cost anywhere from around $100 to well over $2,000-but what do you actually get when you spend more, and how much do you really need to spend? In this video, I break down the biggest differences between cheap, entry-level inflatable kayaks and higher-quality models, including durability, performance, comfort, and versatility. I'll explain who can be perfectly happy with an inexpensive inflatable kayak, who should seriously consider investing in something better, and how to avoid buying a kayak that you'll quickly outgrow. I'll also look at some of the other inflatable options you might not have considered-including inflatable canoes and packrafts-and explain who they're best suited for. If you're thinking about buying an inflatable kayak, this video will help you understand what matters, what doesn't, and how to choose the right inflatable for the kind of paddling you actually want to do.
