A tourist kayak that is comfortable and reliable both for short trips on the water and for expeditions of medium duration. Perfect for traveling on flat rivers and lakes and seas. The kayak is highly rigid and holds its shape well thanks to the high pressure bottom combined with inflatable stems in bow and stern. The bow stem forms the classic shape of the nose, which cuts through the water, easily cuts the wave and helps to keep the course.
The main features of the Alpha-370 model:
• excellent handling
Due to the complex external shape of the bottom, the kayak has great hydrodynamics. Longitudinal recess on the high pressure bottom in combination with inflatable stems (in the bow and stern) serves as an excellent keel. And now - the kayak is not just going, it is flying! The feeling of lightness and even airiness - you just don’t want to stop on such a kayak.
It is comfortable for the paddler to sit on an inflatable seat 10 cm high. By fixing the knee supports, you will sit tightly in the boat and not lose energy when paddling.
• versatility
Alpha 370 is a roomy spacious model for one paddler. In the solo mode, you will have enough space for equipment for a medium-length journeys (7-10 days).
For one paddler, the seat and knee supports are mounted in the center of the boat.
For relaxing trips together, there are fasteners for installing two seats (closer to the bow and stern of the kayak, respectively). In this case for non sport format, knee supports are not installed.
Please note that model 370 is positioned as a full-fledged solo kayak or a walking deuce - 1 adult + 1 child! Two adults can fit, but the paddling properties of the model will not be optimal.
• comfort in details
The kayak in a journey is not just a means of transportation, but a temporary Home.
In models with an inflatable frame, you can use the entire internal space of the boat - rearrange the seats, change location inside the kayak (restless children and pets especially like to “walk” while the trip), swim during your trip or recline the seat back and sunbathe.
• reliability
We know how important it is to be confident in your gear when hiking.
For the production of kayaks, we take only the best, proven materials - outboard PVC manufactured by the German Heytex company, polyurethane (Israel), valves and pumps manufactured by Scoprega (Italy), YKK fittings and other accessories (USA, UK).
For many years we have verified and improved the assembly technology to make the seams reliable. All inflatable elements are checked for at least 22-24 hours.
In production we use modern equipment, we have a lot of special rigs for more convenient and reliable work with different elements of the kayak.
• safety when paddling
Everything is fine when everything is fine )) The advantage of an inflatable kayak is that it is easier to endure extreme situations in the journey. When hitting natural obstacles, the inflatable structure absorbs and quickly distributes the impact over the entire area.
Such a kayak can be ☆ dragged over fallen logs;
☆ you can drive it ashore with acceleration in order to get out and not get your feet wet;
☆ rafting on shallow rivers with a rocky bottom;
☆ you can not worry about the integrity of the structure when the waves rise on a big water.
The kayak consists of two main parts - PVC side tubes with a tension bottom and a removable high-pressure bottom made of airdeck material. Double bottom protection is the key to your peace of mind on a hike!
Safety valves are installed on the side tubes, which regulate the pressure in the inflatable elements and bleed excess air on a hot day. Important! Relief valves should ALWAYS be in the OPEN position. Please check this every time before assembling the kayak and going out on the water.
• additional fasteners and accessories
There are a number of loops on the sides for reinstalling seats or tying luggage.
In order to install the apron in cold or rainy weather, there are PVC triangles on the sides closer to the waterline and hidden Velcro on the bow and stern.
At the bottom of the kayak, closer to the stern, is a special pocket for a skeg (for additional stabilization of the kayak on the course, if needed). The skeg is not in set, but if necessary, you can purchase it later.
