We do not recommend transporting an inflated kayak on the roof of your car. Inflatable kayaks catch the wind easily, which can make them unstable and dangerous while driving. High wind resistance can affect your control of the vehicle and may even cause the kayak to shift or come loose.
If you need to transport your kayak, always deflate it partially or fully and secure it in a carrying bag or on a roof rack designed for kayaks. Make sure it is tightly fastened with straps and avoid driving at high speeds until it is safely secured. Transporting it this way ensures both your safety and the safety of other road users.

Yes, we always recommend wearing a properly fitting life jacket (personal flotation device) while kayaking. Whether a life jacket is legally required depends on the type of water and local regulations. In any case, it’s best to wear a suitable flotation device, especially when kayaking on open water, the sea, or in currents.
For beginners, children, and kayakers with less swimming experience, a life jacket is highly recommended. It increases your safety and provides extra confidence on the water. Choose a comfortable, lightweight model that allows enough freedom of movement for paddling.

Kayaking is possible on many types of water, but the type of water affects how comfortable and safe your experience will be. Calm water, such as lakes or quiet ponds, is ideal for beginners, allowing you to practice your technique and enjoy relaxed trips. Rivers can also be suitable, but it’s important to watch out for currents and obstacles like branches or rocks. Start on gently flowing water and build experience before attempting faster sections. Inflatable kayaks can also be used at sea under calm conditions, but waves and strong currents require extra skill and attention to safety. Always check the weather forecast and stay within your own skill level to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.

Yes, but rinse thoroughly with fresh water after each use to remove salt and sand. Salt can degrade materials and fittings over time if not cleaned properly.

Always check the weather forecast before heading out on the water. Wind has a major impact on your kayaking experience. Offshore winds (blowing from land to water) can be especially dangerous, as they may push you quickly away from the shore. Pay attention not only to wind strength but also to wind direction.
Also consider river and sea currents, coastal tides, and the risk of thunderstorms. These factors can change water conditions quickly.
As a beginner, it’s best to kayak in calm water with little wind. Always stay within your skill level and return in time if conditions change. Being well-prepared ensures a safe, relaxed, and enjoyable kayaking experience.

Wearing the right clothing contributes to both comfort and safety on the water. Always choose your outfit based on the weather conditions and water temperature.
In cold water or during the spring and autumn seasons, it’s wise to wear a wetsuit or thermal clothing. Many people underestimate the water temperature and even on a sunny day, the water can still be cold, causing you to lose body heat faster than expected.
On warm days, sun protection is essential. Wear a UV shirt and a hat or cap to shield yourself from direct sunlight, and always apply sunscreen to protect your skin.
If you’re kayaking near rocky shores or areas with stones or shells, water shoes provide extra grip and protection when getting in and out of the kayak.
By choosing clothing that matches the conditions, you ensure a comfortable and safe experience on the water.

It’s wise to bring your phone when kayaking, especially if you’re going out alone or for an extended period. Always keep your phone in a waterproof case and secure it safely in your kayak or in a dry bag to prevent losing it. This way, in an emergency, you can quickly call for help, share your location, or check the weather.
Familiarize yourself with local emergency numbers and procedures before heading out. If possible, share your location with someone on shore. In case of injury or an accident, stay calm, stay with your kayak as a flotation aid, and seek help immediately. Being well-prepared increases your safety and the safety of others.

For beginners, it’s safer not to go out alone. Let someone know where you plan to kayak and when you expect to return, so help can arrive quickly if needed. Start with short trips and gradually increase your distance. Paddle out against the wind and return with the wind, which helps you manage your energy and ensures you have enough strength to get back safely.
While kayaking, always be aware of other water users, such as boats, swimmers, and other kayakers. Keep to the right where possible and respect local navigation rules. Avoid busy waterways, especially as a beginner.
It’s also important never to kayak under the influence of alcohol or drugs, as this reduces your reaction time, balance, and judgment, which is dangerous on the water. Staying well-prepared and alert ensures a safe and enjoyable kayaking experience.

Kayaking is a fun activity for the whole family, as long as safety comes first. Always have children accompanied by an adult and ensure they wear a properly fitting life jacket. Start on calm, flat water, keep distances short, and make sure children know how to hold on and stay seated calmly. Keep a close eye on them at all times.
When kayaking with children, it’s best to choose a stable, wider kayak to maintain optimal balance.

Before heading out on the water, it’s wise to read the manual of your kayak. It contains important information on safe use, maintenance, the correct air pressure (PSI), weight capacity, and accessories. Following the manual helps you enjoy your kayak to the fullest while staying safe on the water.

It’s normal for the air pressure in your kayak to decrease slightly over time, especially with temperature changes. Simply top up the air before paddling.

Avoid leaving your inflatable kayak in direct sunlight, as heat causes the air inside to expand. Too much pressure can potentially damage the seams or material. Store your kayak in the shade or in a cool, dry place whenever possible.

For storage, we recommend keeping your kayak inflated to around 60–70% of the maximum pressure. If needed, partially deflate it to help maintain its condition.

Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can increase the air pressure inside your kayak and put stress on the seams, which may lead to deformation or damage. Always store your kayak in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

After each use, rinse your kayak with fresh water and, if needed, a mild soap to remove sand, salt, and dirt. Remove the fins first so you can also clean the fin box properly. Use a soft cloth to gently remove any stubborn dirt, and make sure the kayak is completely dry before storing it.
Avoid harsh cleaning products, as they can damage the material and affect the longevity of your board.

Fold your kayak loosely and evenly; folding it too tightly can damage the PVC layers. Store your inflatable kayak in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and avoid extreme temperatures.
Make sure the kayak is completely dry before rolling it up to prevent mold and odors. For long-term storage, it’s best to keep your kayak in the included storage bag. This helps maintain the kayak in optimal condition and ready for use.

Small scratches or surface marks are normal and do not affect the air tightness or performance of your kayak. However, any hole or crack should be repaired promptly to prevent air leakage and ensure safe use.

Use the included repair kit and make sure your kayak is clean, dry, and fully deflated. Cut a round patch slightly larger than the damaged area so it fully covers the hole or rip.
Apply a thin layer of glue to both the patch and the damaged spot. Let it dry briefly, then carefully press the patch onto the board, ensuring there are no air bubbles.
Allow the repair to dry for 24 hours before inflating your board. Always check that the kayak is fully airtight before heading back out on the water.
