    420D denier is thicker and more abrasion resistant than 210D that,s why its used for the base rather than the tubes as its more durable. I specified 420D for both although you pay a weight and pack size penalty. Your production and comments on use were spot on. well done.😀

    Yes a definite item on the shopping list. A real good friend of a boat in many cases. Even if you beach up for the night. Turn it upside down, lower the pressure and get a tarp over you and a comfy sleeping bag. Bingo! What luxury. Thanks for the video. Take care.

    Hey Stevie! Thank you for a great review.
    I had it confirmed by Jerome from Itiwit's French HQ that the Packraft Paddle 500 would be coming in 2023. It will be a 5-piece adjustable paddle. In fact, you can find it in Itiwit's 2022 catalogue. 😉
    I'm waiting for its release.
    Happy paddles! 👍

    Hey Stevie, your review made me buy this packraft 5 weeks ago. I was having doubts between the 100 or 500. I already gave it some serious abuse on shallow, rocky rivers. No problemo at all, it passed the test with ease. The materials are very strong. The front side is a bit low, it means you will catch water quickly on white water, on the other hand it means better aerodynamics with windy conditions. I will test it this week with a fin from a sup-board. With a bit of improvising, you can transport quite some bagage, but the 500 is obviously better suited for that. Thanks for this grand review, grtz Eckie

    No good for me personally. However a GREAT looking raft that looks very well made (No supice there as it's by itiwit ) and I can see many people having a great time with this. Great review mate.

    • @StevieWyatt

  • @curtis.strange

    So glad I found this video randomly as there is limited info about this raft online. I'm still torn between this and an MRS model as they are the most affordable in Canada. The tracking on this one doesn't seem great by comparison but that's a weakness of all packrafts in the current gen it seems.

  • @pamepame3686
    @pamepame3686 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great review! Interesting concept. The main drawback seems to be the difficulty of keeping a straight path. That's because you're basically paddling a very light dinghy with no keel. Normally, such boats would be rowed (i.e. facing backwards and pulling two oars at the same time, so the propulsion is equal on both sides). Why don't they just include two rowlocks to make that possible? I can't imagine they would increase the overall weight substantially.

    • @StevieWyatt
      @StevieWyatt  ปีที่แล้ว

      That's a really good point. I might experiment with that with a couple of dinghy oars, wouldn't be difficult to glue some makeshift rowlocks

  • @Genzaijh
    @Genzaijh ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I can sum up the review of the product in a few words. The packraft will float you across still water. If you only need to travel 100 m or 200 m this is the perfect choice for you as it will get you across water. ( Though you won't be able to transport your bike across the water. ) But if you plan to spend more than one hour in the water, if you are wanting to guide yourself across water with precision then look for a kayak that has fins on the bottom of the kayak or the X500.
    I bought an early generation of Itiwit's kayak that was designed basically like this. I paddled about 6 km and it took me about 6 hrs to paddle, the problem was, I couldn't build up speed, The harder I paddled the boat would just spin around. In the end , I don't use that baot because it does not effectively transport you from point A to point B. I got my worth out of it because I got it on sale half price but there was a reason they discontinued that model.

    • @StevieWyatt
      @StevieWyatt  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! I haven't tried the 500 yet, but what I know is it has a stowage compartment for your backpack in the rear, and it has a spray deck so good for more challenging conditions than the 100 including some white water.
      So I guess it depends on what trips you expect to do, and how far and how wild you will be going
