- We love our K2 Challenger Kayaks for summer water excursions with our dogs Apollo and Heidi. The Kayak fits into a small bag - so it's easy to bring with us in our 5th wheel travels.
In this video we show how easy and fast it is to set up our kayaks and get onto the water to have some fun.

I have a K1. It's been excellent!
You don't have to inflate by mouth, with the seats.
The pipe for the original pump has adapters which will fit those valves
Great video, and clearly happy dogs
thank you so much for the tip on the seat inflation. We were so intent on using the electric pump, that we forgot to check the one that comes with the boat!!!
Thank you so much for the great tip about the yoga mat ! Love your dogs, loving life ! Great video
glad it was helpful!
Always love seeing your dogs they enjoy these adventures so much
thank you
Thanks for the review! Solidified my decision to get the 2 seater for solo use as someone who is 6'2 and also will want to bring my dog.
thank you for watching
Greetings from Brisbane. Thanks for the vid--info so accessible. This is definitely the kayak for me and my grandson. Love to the pups.
Glad it was helpful! Wishing you many adventures with your pups!
I love your dogs, they're cute.
They are the BEST adventure companions!
Love the idea of using a yoga mat. Thanks for the tip and the set up video.
Glad it was helpful! Wishing you fun times on the water!
Thank you! I intuitively got the two person so my little fur person could come with me. Great tip with the yoga mat! I'm thinking it adds a little extra stability as well. Genius! I appreciate the premise of your channel as said fur person goes virtually everywhere with me. He's a 15 pound velcro dog. You have a new subbie!
welcome, so glad you enjoy our content!
Great Instructional tutorial & Love your Dogs🐾🐾❤
Thank you so much!
As one other commenter wrote, the original pump has 2 nozzles. One of them fits the 2 hull chamber valves and the other fits the 2 seat valves. No need to manually blow the seat up. It's also a good idea to inflate the bottom part of the seat to about 25% only. That gives a more stable feeling.
awesome tip - Jim thanks you for not having to do it "by mouth" any 😂longer
i just recently purchased this same kayak. i am looking forward to getting out there on the water!
wishing you lots of great kayaking adventures
Thanks very useful information
Glad it was helpful!
Great review
thank you! Glad it was helpful
good video and beautiful dog, they recommend the Intex Challenger k1 to start in the world of kayaking. Thank you.
thank you for your comment! We actually have the K2 - it gives us more room for the dogs.
I have a K1, 2.5 years now, never even needed to patch it. I'm only just over 5ft so it suits me perfectly, so easy !
Thank you so much for the info!! Can you share which pump you got from Amazon?
Yes, it's the Dr. meter amzn.to/3Smv3rR
This is a good review on the K2 because I was wondering if it's OK to be used as a single-person Kayak; I know it's primarily meant to be used as a double, but I've heard the leg room on the K1 is a tight squeeze in the front for taller people (6 feet plus).
thank you for your comment. we love the k2 and it tracks well with just one person
Thanks for the video. How is that electric pump holding up? I’ve seen reviews where the battery goes bad after a year….
we've now had it for several years and it still works, but we only go kayaking a few times a summer
Thank you for your helpful videos, thinking I'll get this for some day trips with my pups 😁
Do you use the paddles that came with the kayak or have you upgraded those yet?
we still use the same paddles and they have been good for us, but we only use the kayak on lakes. If you do rivers where you need to go against stream, you may wish to get some better ones :) Hope this helps!
Is this kayak suitable for seawater use? Thank you!
we have never used it in sea water, it is advertised as a calm water kayak.
Is the K2 a two person Kayak? And I see it folds up quite compact at the start of the video. How much does it weigh compact and could I take in on the train?
the K2 is for two people, we like the extra room for our dogs. It has a carry bag, however, it is not that comfortable to carry for long periods of time.
@@mcsdog thanks. Do you know it weighs folded up in the carry bag?
@@haveatyou1 its like 13-14kg with all accesory
Would a beginner like myself be okay getting the k2, rather than k1? If you don’t recommend it, would the k1 fit my small dog with me?
I believe either would be fine. The K2 definitely offers more room and it is not hard to maneuver by yourself.
I thought you couldnt use power pump?
why not?
Is it still going strong?
yes, even after all these years, our two kayaks are holding up - we take them with us wherever we travel in the RV
You don't inflate any of that by mouth. It comes with a hand pump with the appropriate attachments.
You are right, it does!
Just got mine!!!!! Can’t wait to try it!!!!🛶🛶🛶🤗🤗🤗
enjoy!
@@mcsdog I sure will!!!!!🛶🛶🛶🤗🤗🤗
