Oru Kayak LAKE (Black) Set

[Manager's comment]

Get started right away! Oru Kayak set for sale!

If you're planning on travelling by car and canoeing on a lake or still water, this is the only choice! It's not as small as a packraft and has a smaller load capacity, but its biggest advantage is that it doesn't require the hassle of inflating or deflating, and can be set up in just 1-3 minutes. Also, in terms of straightness and wind resistance, the Oru kayak, whose bottom sinks below the waterline, is far superior to a packraft, which floats on the water.

If you are staying at a lakeside campsite, it will definitely be fun to have an Olu Kayak to play on the lake!

If you're short on time and only want to ride for 30 minutes, you can do it with Oru Kayak!

[Quote from manufacturer]

■Oru Kayak's main product is the folding kayak.

The inspiration for this kayak comes from the Japanese art of origami, and the brand name "Oru" comes from the Japanese word for "fold." This kayak is unprecedented in terms of structure, lightness, and compactness.

■Surprisingly light for a kayak

One of the features of Oru Kayak is its lightness. The lightest model in the lineup, the Lake, weighs just 7.7 kg, making it surprisingly light for a folding kayak. It can be easily carried with one hand. It's easy to carry anywhere, just like a bag.

■Compact and can be taken anywhere

It folds up compactly, so there's no need for a roof rack or anything like that, and you can easily take it with you in the back seat or trunk of your car.It can also be carried on an airplane as checked baggage, so you can enjoy kayaking at your destination.

■ Simple structure makes it easy to assemble and disassemble

The Oru Kayak has a very simple structure. Unlike a float boat, it does not require a frame. Simply unfold the body from the box, fold along the creases, and assemble the kayak in no time. The Lake can be set up in as little as one minute, making it easy to start when you arrive at your destination and to pack up after enjoying your time.

■Oru Kayak's unique material with excellent durability

It uses OruPlast™, a proprietary material that Oru Kayak has developed and improved over the course of 10 years.

It is durable and abrasion-resistant enough to withstand sliding over rocks and crashing into obstacles, and is tough enough to withstand 20,000 bends.

It is also UV treated for a 10-year durability, so it can be used safely for a long time even in outdoor environments.
