A couple things to note: 1. Sit inside kayaks are much more difficult to recover from if you fall out or they capsize. 2. A sit-on-top kayak is wetter but recovery is somewhat easier if you fall out (you just kind of flop on top). 3. A sit inside kayak may be more difficult to launch especially if you are overweight or not very flexible. 4. Tandem sit on top kayak's are a lot of fun and less work than a single. If your new to kayaking, the sit-on-top makes the most sense unless you are in cold water.
Thank you Trey. I've watched several videos explaining the different types and each time I'm left wondering what the real differences between a sit inside and a sit on top are.
sit on top is only safe in calm waters, its simply dangerous to go into a fast river or ocean without stability. recovery on a sit on top could be deadly if its top heavy and gear gets flipped over.
A sit on top is not a kayak. A kayak bybdefinition has to be sit in. Shit on tops are nothing more than surfboards with comfortable and convienient mouldings
@@Aaron565 i disagree a little. There are a vast range of surf boards out there now and SOME are suitable for moderate water-sea or river. A kayak is far safer only if it is desigened for those specific conditions. Sea kayaks are my choice and moderate to rought capabilities are what i look for. If i were to use one in rapids it would be a little dangerous compared to white water kayaks. Having said that i would never own/use a surfboard for kayak use
Nice video. I got my first kayak, a sit inside kayak. I was unsure between SI and SOT kayak but i got the SI for the simple fact that the SI allows you to have a better stability and at the same times protects more from cold water and cold wind. This is my consideration since I like to go kayaking even in cold waters and cold seasons.
The kayak at 2:03, isn't there drain plugs on some of the sit ins? That would be much easier then pumping the water out with that hand pump. Those are nice kayaks.
I just started looking for a kayak. Thanks for your video. I'm wanting to fish so I think the hybrid or the sit on top will suit me best especially me having a bad back
You left out one category, the inflatable kayaks. I'm looking at the Aquaglide Noyo 90. Also does the weight of the individual affect the tippyness of a kayak? A light weight person would make the kayak sit higher in the water.
Whitewater sub categories - creeker (one shown in video) Used for river running (longer in length) - playboat (shortest) Short for good maneuvrability (Used for tricks) - river runner (cross-breed between playboat and creeker) Can accomodate playboating and river running/waterfalls There are also some boats they didn't include: squirt boat raft canoe motorboat Chuck Norris mobile boat
I would either like a hybrid or sit in kayak for fishing along the coast in decent weather in California. What do you think would be better for fishing? And by the way, it will probably be near the Jetty in Half Moon Bay so it will be fairly calm.
I couldn't make up my mind so I have both types, I had a ascend sit on top fishing kayak. But that was to heavy so I traded it for 300 cash and a sit in sundolphin Aruba 10ss. Then I went and bought a sit on top Pelican motion 100, and it's not bad I like the cup holders and storage spaces. Then I also bought a sit in lifetime charger 100 galaxy 2, which is awesome in the water. But doesn't have a cup holder just a small storage area where the nets are. I use the sit on when it's super hot out, and in water that's wavy. The sit on top, I use when it's cooler out on more still water. But the sit on top has me liking it more for the fact of the all the storage it has, and how easy it is to get on and off it.
Need to know if, or which, kayaks are unsinkable? Clearly the open models can fill with water. But with the sit-on-top models you could have a hatch ajar or something. Maybe they could be made sinkproof with modification.
I am new to Kayaking. So new I don't have one yet because I don't know what one to get. I want to be able to spend a day out just cruising around but I have 2 kids. I also want to be able to fish from it as well. I hear the sit on top are tiring to tour around. I hear sit in are better, however, fishing would be a pain. All in all I am looking at getting 2 Tandem but want something that isn't too tiring but also offer some recreational purposes as well. My wife will have one with one kid and I with another kid. Any suggestions? BTW I am not looking to do any white water or ocean. Just lakes and something that can take a wave if a storm hits.
I'm a recreational kayaker, but I'd like to do some river situations where the water could be a bit choppy. I know I'll get wet (though I have dry-pants), and self-bailing scuppers, so what's your opinion of doing that sort of float trip on a river with a set-on-top kayak? I don't do cold weather kayaking, so hypothermia isn't as big of a possibility for me. Summers are when I tend to use my kayak, with possible some early fall, or late spring ventures. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. It was helpful. I need your advice on what to buy. I am over 50 and live close to a wide river (with reasonable traffic). I would like to take kayaking as a sport (not fishing) to strengthen my upper body. I have had a couple of lessons on a sea kayak and found my body is not flexible enough (knee problems) for it and can't do self rescue. Most likely I will be on my own on that river ( close to the river banks). What would be your recommendation out of all these types?
Hey Sam, A recreational sit-inside might be perfect for you which Roland starts talking about at 1:17 in the video. I would encourage you to reach out to our customer service and they can talk with you one on one about what would be best. Email them or call at 888-828-3828 (Toll Free) or customer@austinkayak.com
I'm looking for a kayak that i can just paddle around lakes, calm rivers and maybe do some fishing. I'd prefer it be a sit in kayak, got any recommendations?
Lionheart most recreation style kayaks would do well. The best bet would be to go to a store that allows you to try paddling a few different ones to get an idea what they are like, how stable, can you stand (this part applies to fishing mainly) etc
I am looking to get into Kayaking and really for my first Kayak, though I like the idea of dry storage areas... I really fell in love with the Canoe Kayak Hybrid and the large storage... I have a waterproof case for my camera and there are many locations that require access to a boat of sorts.. Kayaking out to them would be no problem. I have Kayaked down the spring water rivers of florida.. but would love to go out into the bay(tampa bay a bit.. I am a big guy, so the large Canoe Kayak design looks like it would be an excellent fit especially for me being new to the sport. Which Brands of the Canoe/Kayak Hybrids would you recommend for someone like me?
I recently received a free whitewater kayak, the previous owners told me it could not be used in calm waters as it was missing a vital mechanism to steer properly, could this be true??
Awesome video! I really want to start sea kayaking, but I'm not that experienced. Do you guys think getting a touring kayak would be too tough for a beginner?
Sure. This video is a broad overview of the choices but all of the boats could be broken down into subcategories for different types of paddlers. Those videos are on the horizon.
+Blazin'Blades Hey BB! The reason you haven't been able to find a Zypher 170 is because Wilderness Systems upgraded it to be the Tempest 170 (ack.com/k49n) a while back. The Tempest has hatch upgrades and a rudder, where the Zephyr had a drop down sceg, and there is a slight difference in length, but other than that it's just like the Zephyr featured in this video!
I could use you help, I am looking at the creek kayaks, I have two white water kayaks now. but here is the issue, there are several very nice relaxing small rivers in my area, I tired you my Otter X, and I hit to many obstacles underwater, could you suggest a good kayak for my needs, i can not use a knee kayak due to my knees being trashed out in service.Thank You
just buy sundolphine kayaks cause: 1-they are cheap so you dont realy need to be scared in shallow waters 2-some medium quality that could let you float 3if you dont want realy spend 200 dollars you could buy that intex explorer 100 (or200 and 300 ones) i mean they cost 11 dollars
I'm looking at buying a No Limits™ Journey 8'6" Sit-in Fishing Kayak and was wondering if it would be able to hold me. I'm a 5'8" male and weigh 235 lbs
Are sit-in fishing kayaks also good for recreational use? I want a kayak that I can fish out of on small lakes but also want to use it for recreation and possibly in a stream. Am I trying to combine too many things into one kayak? Thanks!
This video helps me alot but what would you give a 12 year old kid who can spend up to 1,300 Aus dollars I can ride in ruff or smooth water which one a sit in or touring kayak can someone please help me
TheSnowyPenguins Depends on what the plans are for the kid, at 12 years old they will out grow kayaks quickly. What type of paddling are they doing? (whitewater, recreational, sea kayaking, etc) if it is whitewater you are likely going to be buying a new boat everyone few years or more to compensate for there growth. With a sea kayak or recreational boat you can look at getting one a little bigger so they grow into it a bit more, but still likely if its a sea kayak to be buying another one down the road depending on how much they grow.
all day yesterday at the beach (assateague island maryland) i watched someone kayaking riding the waves in similar to surfing. It looked like so much fun. I very much regret not speaking to him asking him questions. His was short but i really dont know exactly which type of kayak it was. Not sure if it was a sit in or sit on. He was taking turns with other people, they were hopping in and out of it easily which makes me think it was a sit on kayak. I wish i knew for sure!
+hempthegreen It depends what level of rapids you're going to encounter, I think it'd be fine for level 1-2 rapids, but for something higher, you'd want to go for a kayak specifically designed for whitewater kayaking like the Dagger Mamba 8.1(www.austinkayak.com/products/417/Dagger-Mamba-81-Kayak-River-Runner.html)
+hempthegreen The Hurricane kayaks are top notch but they're not really whitewater boats, I have the Santee 126 Sport and it is a great boat for recreational touring in and around the inlets of North Florida.
shame you cant get proper lessons for white water kayak here in norway becouse even if we have the perfect rivers here there just arent enough ppl using white water kayaks as opposed to sea kayaks so if i want lessons i have to travel out of the country for it but i must say best way to train too lose weight ive found is kayaking ive lost 25 kilos in 3 months and youre actualy having fun doing it jogging is dead boring in comparison i recomend the dagger katana for large ppl and for multi use
Great content! From one editor to another, there is no need to cut back to the person for him to say the next style of kayak. Just use the audio.......
Good question - a light touring model might be the best choice for you. A few that come to mind would be the Tsunami, Expression, or Focus. Give our customer service team an email at customer@austinkayak.com and they'll help you find the model that's best for you.
Hey Jonas. Thanks for watching. You can always e-mail our customer service department (customer@ACK.com) and they will be happy to work with you to find a boat that suits your needs.
I used to use a sit in kayak, i rolled it and i couldnt get my feet out and almost drown, it was the scariest thing in the world. thankfully my friend helped me out. sit in kayaks, especially the one at 3:15 are VERY dangerous, if you flip, good fucking luck getting out.
Hi there! It's going to depend a lot on what style of kayaking you're looking to do, but for most recreational uses, I would recommend at least a 10 foot boat, but would say you would likely be most comfortable in a 12 foot kayak.
This is something I've never done before and am getting my grandson one for X-mas, so I was thinking me a 12 ft and him a 101/2 we live next to the Clearwater River in Idaho. But we just want basically recreational....Thanks again
@@marks7352 That will be an amazing place to paddle once you get your kayaks! 12 feet should be perfect as it will give you extra performance in terms of speed and tracking, which is the ability for the kayak to continue in a straight line once you stop paddling, without sacrificing maneuverability. If you wanted to ask more specific questions to nail down which kayaks would be great options for you, our customer reps love getting to have that conversation. 888-828-3828
Sandy Taveras You can find all of our available kayaks on www.ack.com! Please give us a ring at 1 888 828 3828 if you have any further questions. Thanks!
Sandy Taveras depending on the style you are looking for will determine the cost. Most recreational kayaks run from 500 - 1500 dollars, white water about the same. Both have some that are higher in price. For sea kayaks/touring kayaks the price on avg runs 1000 - 3000 dollars depending on many factors but can go as high as 5000 dollars. If your looking at sea kayaking it is safe to say kayak, paddle, pfd, safety gear, and at least one course will run you approx $2000. Regardless of the style you pick DO NOT be cheap with your PFD/lifejacket -- it is always better to spend a little more to get one you will always wear when on the water.
Austin Kayak Can you tell me the model / a link of the light blue kayak to the right of the guy talking from the beginning of the video until 20 seconds
Andrew Schreiber www.austinkayak.com/products/5793/Necky-Rip-12-Kayak-2014.html This is the kayak that you are looking for. Unfortunately, we no longer have it in that light blue color. If you have any other questions, please let us know or personal message us on facebook!

Hi There, I am looking to be a distributor for Hobie Kayak, I was hoping if you could help me get in touch with them or work up a partnership with yourself.
The main difference is that there are real kayaks, and things that roughly look like kayaks, but aren't, and handle very differently. These pseudo-kayaks are called Sit On Tops, and are much more like paddle boards in construction and operation. Many uneducated people can't tell them apart, despite obvious differences.
A couple things to note:
1. Sit inside kayaks are much more difficult to recover from if you fall out or they capsize.
2. A sit-on-top kayak is wetter but recovery is somewhat easier if you fall out (you just kind of flop on top).
3. A sit inside kayak may be more difficult to launch especially if you are overweight or not very flexible.
4. Tandem sit on top kayak's are a lot of fun and less work than a single.
If your new to kayaking, the sit-on-top makes the most sense unless you are in cold water.
Thank you Trey. I've watched several videos explaining the different types and each time I'm left wondering what the real differences between a sit inside and a sit on top are.
bullshit.
learn how to recover by rolling and its easy.
shit on top cant be rolled

There are a few of these but If you accidentally kick the drain plug out your boat will sink. \

thank you so much i know this is an older video but this helped me so much with making my choices
Thanks man. Very informative. This is the exact breakdown i've been looking for.
Sure. This video is a broad overview of the choices but all of the boats could be broken down into subcategories for different types of paddlers. Those videos are on the horizon.
Hi
I am looking for that Zephyr 170 you are showing in this video, couldn't find it anywhere else... LOL :-)
Cheers
BB
+Blazin'Blades Hey BB! The reason you haven't been able to find a Zypher 170 is because Wilderness Systems upgraded it to be the Tempest 170 (ack.com/k49n) a while back. The Tempest has hatch upgrades and a rudder, where the Zephyr had a drop down sceg, and there is a slight difference in length, but other than that it's just like the Zephyr featured in this video!
Thanks for the info. I want a new kayak so bad, but I gotta graduate college first. Less than a year to go!
Is abs plastic better than the poly material
looking to purchase two kayaks. what size would be best suited for someone who is 6'0 tall? would an 8' be good or is that too short? thank you
summer dawne way to short get a-least 10 or a 12 footer

How much do the hybrids go for.
I could use you help, I am looking at the creek kayaks, I have two white water kayaks now. but here is the issue, there are several very nice relaxing small rivers in my area, I tired you my Otter X, and I hit to many obstacles underwater, could you suggest a good kayak for my needs, i can not use a knee kayak due to my knees being trashed out in service.Thank You

just buy sundolphine kayaks cause:
1-they are cheap so you dont realy need to be scared in shallow waters
2-some medium quality that could let you float
3if you dont want realy spend 200 dollars you could buy that intex explorer 100 (or200 and 300 ones) i mean they cost 11 dollars
Glad it helped! Give us a shout if we can help you with anything else!!

+Richard Hernandez That kayak has a 295 Ib weight capacity, so you're good!
Any tips for kayak fishing? I don't like the idea of fishing while a tree is coming towards my head while I'm not looking.
thanks for the info I'm down to 2 choices
+MobyDickHead Glad to hear - let me know if you need any help deciding between them!
buy both..
very informative video. thanks

can someone tell me if a santee 116 sit down would be ok for a beginner on a river (white water)
+hempthegreen It depends what level of rapids you're going to encounter, I think it'd be fine for level 1-2 rapids, but for something higher, you'd want to go for a kayak specifically designed for whitewater kayaking like the Dagger Mamba 8.1(www.austinkayak.com/products/417/Dagger-Mamba-81-Kayak-River-Runner.html)
Austin Kayak Thanks for the feed back, I have to ask someone that hits the river often that I'm going to be going on to really know, Thank you again!
+hempthegreen The Hurricane kayaks are top notch but they're not really whitewater boats, I have the Santee 126 Sport and it is a great boat for recreational touring in and around the inlets of North Florida.
how big is the sit inside kayak, 10ft or 12ft?
Filipee coelho most range from 10 - 16 ft
Thanks for the great video!
whats the name of the seat in the sit on top kayak??
creepy transition music...
Reminds me of "Lost"
Ikr
Very eeeerie
im six foot is there enough leg room on a sit on one?
Hey Steven. I'm also 6ft tall and have found that any sit on kayak that is at least 10ft long will work, but I'm generally more comfortable in a 12ft.
shame you cant get proper lessons for white water kayak here in norway becouse even if we have the perfect rivers here there just arent enough ppl using white water kayaks as opposed to sea kayaks so if i want lessons i have to travel out of the country for it but i must say best way to train too lose weight ive found is kayaking ive lost 25 kilos in 3 months and youre actualy having fun doing it jogging is dead boring in comparison i recomend the dagger katana for large ppl and for multi use

Are there any kayaks that have like 350 to 400 weigh range

good job
What about race kayaks?
Great content! From one editor to another, there is no need to cut back to the person for him to say the next style of kayak. Just use the audio.......
So if I'm looking for a kayak that is good for both lakes and sea kayaking, would I go with recreational?
Good question - a light touring model might be the best choice for you. A few that come to mind would be the Tsunami, Expression, or Focus. Give our customer service team an email at customer@austinkayak.com and they'll help you find the model that's best for you.

This is something I've never done before and am getting my grandson one for X-mas, so I was thinking me a 12 ft and him a 101/2 we live next to the Clearwater River in Idaho. But we just want basically recreational....Thanks again
@@marks7352 That will be an amazing place to paddle once you get your kayaks! 12 feet should be perfect as it will give you extra performance in terms of speed and tracking, which is the ability for the kayak to continue in a straight line once you stop paddling, without sacrificing maneuverability. If you wanted to ask more specific questions to nail down which kayaks would be great options for you, our customer reps love getting to have that conversation. 888-828-3828
Que tal para pesca en mar kayak wilderness tarpon 120
very usful, just the thing im looking for
I wanna know how much it costs?? Somebody helpme
Sandy Taveras You can find all of our available kayaks on www.ack.com! Please give us a ring at 1 888 828 3828 if you have any further questions. Thanks!
Sandy Taveras depending on the style you are looking for will determine the cost. Most recreational kayaks run from 500 - 1500 dollars, white water about the same. Both have some that are higher in price. For sea kayaks/touring kayaks the price on avg runs 1000 - 3000 dollars depending on many factors but can go as high as 5000 dollars.
If your looking at sea kayaking it is safe to say kayak, paddle, pfd, safety gear, and at least one course will run you approx $2000.
Regardless of the style you pick DO NOT be cheap with your PFD/lifejacket -- it is always better to spend a little more to get one you will always wear when on the water.

The main difference is that there are real kayaks, and things that roughly look like kayaks, but aren't, and handle very differently. These pseudo-kayaks are called Sit On Tops, and are much more like paddle boards in construction and operation. Many uneducated people can't tell them apart, despite obvious differences.
Maybe get someone who can get through the whole video without stut stut stuttering
Rude much, the informations is great and he's easy to understand.
