WHY DO YOU WANT AN INFLATABLE KAYAK INSTEAD OF A HARD SHELL ?'
There are many reasons why our customers pick one of our inflatables. Every boat is some kind of compromise, so there is no single reason to pick an inflatable. But here are some things to consider.

1. Do you just want to have fun? Inflatable kayaks are instant fun. The learning curve in an inflatable is very fast. Many experts consider the THRILLSEEKER a kayak with training wheels. If you swim in a hard shell kayak, you have a lot of work ahead of you and your buddies before you're back in and paddling. Claw your way out of the boat after getting your spray skirt off. With one hand grab your paddle, with the other hand grab your boat (it's now full of water and weighs a ton). Now swim to shore, with no hands.
Once you've made it to shore, get all the water out of your boat, get back in and get your skirt on, and find your buddies (they're the ones sitting around waiting for you). OR, if you're in a THRILLSEEKER and you flip over, just swim back to your boat, grab either end and climb back in. Hand paddle back to your paddle (or better yet, hang on to it) and you have rescued yourself by yourself.

2. Do you just want to have fun? No one is a natural-born great kayaker!! You have to learn, and learning is done by repetition. In a hard shell kayak, when you're learning, you're swimming, and when you're swimming. you're not learning to kayak. In an inflatable, learning is faster because, 1. Our boats are much more stable than any hard shell kayak, so you'remuch less likely to flip over. 2. If you do flip your inflatable, you can usually just jump right back in and keep learning. It doesn't matter how good you are, until you have a "bullet proof" roll, you're always dependent on others to help you. In an inflatable, you can usually self-rescue. But still you might need help, so NEVER PADDLE ALONE, EVER.

3. So you just want to have fun! Do you want to run bigger water, run a more technical river than you have before' Get in an inflatable kayak and do it. THRILLSEEKERS were made by and for expert boaters who wanted to challenge themselves and run what had never been run before. In a THRILLSEEKER, you can learn quickly and safely how to run harder whitewater. A lot of THRILLSEEKERS are bought by experienced boaters who want to teach others.

4. So you just want to have fun! If your favorite river is too low to run in your hard shell kayak, you can still have tons of fun in your THRILLSEEKER. Maneuver easily through, over and around rocks and find the fun water. The THRILLSEEKER is forgiving - bounce off the rocks if you can't miss them. So you don't have a safe place to store a kayak' Get an inflatable. You can store it in a closet or the corner of your bedroom. Rolled up, our SEASEEKER can fit as carry-on luggage, it's that small. Don't have expensive roof racks, or don't want roof racks on your car' Forget the roof racks, you don't need them. Inflatable kayaks (THRILLSEEKERS, THRILLKATS and SEASEEKERS) can be inflated with a hand pump in less than 10 minutes, and with a $30 inflater you can cut that time in half. Deflating is just as fast, then roll up your boat and you're done. No worries about losing your boat off the top of your car. Save GAS.

About our craft,

Why PVC? Why does CUSTOM INFLATABLES use PVC for their kayaks? PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is the material that coats 1000 denier fabric. We use 32-ounce fabric and we triple weld all seams. What does all that technical stuff mean ? We use PVC because it's tough.We use PVC three times. That ensures you of air holding capacity. We use PVC because it's stiff, so our boats enough are stiff to cut through waves. We use PVC because its lightweight. We use PVC because it comes in nice colors and we can make pretty boats.
