    I go down rivers with that thing by myself and use it as a bed , add a tarp on top and some gear , it is just an awesome kayak to take around australia

    Have you ever tried paddleboarding .. it seems to be the latest craze.
    I have hired a sit-on kayak a few times and was thinking about buying one, but two friends who already had kayaks have sold theirs and bought paddleboards instead, saying the SUP is more enjoyable. Of course, being inflatable, they are much easier to transport than a conventional kayak. Maybe an inflatable kayak is the best of both worlds.
    I have subscribed .. good luck with your channel

      I haven't tried paddle boarding but I think I prefer the possibilities of a kayak as I can load it with my stuff for a day or few days adventure on the lake, sea or rivers.
      You're right I think inflatable kayak is a good alternative and makes storing it a lot easier. I would definitely recommend the itiwit 3 kayak, it's so stable. I would try SUP but I think I'd get bored over a whole day. Thanks for the comment and subscribe glad you're enjoying the videos.

      Prueba a llevar una mochila con el picnic y sobretodo con un mar un poco agitado, luego me cuentas.

    Hello, I have watched your video, because I like ititwit canoes, you are the first person I see who can use a unilateral paddle to grab a canoe, may I ask if your unilateral paddle is faster and easier, thank you.

    • @outdoorgaz5

      I would say it's faster with a two blade kayak paddle, I just prefer the more relaxed canoe style. Hope that helps thanks for watching.

    Hi mate , thinking of getting that model mainly for rivers but how do you find it in the sea ?

    • @outdoorgaz5
      @outdoorgaz5  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It handles really well in the sea, it has 3 thins under the boat that slot in. That managed to keep me going straight. I have found that in rivers its quite difficult going up stream, due to the drag. Awesome kayak though, thanks for watching

    Really enjoyed your video. Thanks for doing it. I'm going to get an Itiwit 3 person kayak myself. What make are your paddles? I assume that they convert into a single paddle if required.

    • @outdoorgaz5
      @outdoorgaz5  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Glad you enjoyed it and I'm sure you will enjoy the itiwit 3. The paddles I use are just single blade.

    Enjoying your kayak vids. I’ve got the itiwit 3 and the x100. What do you use to clean your kayak?

    • @outdoorgaz5

      Thanks Liam, I just hose it down with fresh water and wipe away any dirt with a cloth. Glad you are enjoying the videos. Can't wait to get back on the water.

    I found that there is a problem with this boat, that is, the black PVC rubber sole and the needle and thread seam of the cloth are not waterproof, they will enter the water, can you unzip the zipper, take out the airbag and test it?, this may be why the boat always cause of a lot of water

    • @outdoorgaz5
      @outdoorgaz5  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I haven't had that problem myself but you can unzip and take out all the individual inflation tubes. Hope you get it sorted

      Because I found that many people only know this after using it for a period of time. It is true that the fabric itself is waterproof, but the needle seam is not waterproof, it is all perforated, which is the needle seam between the black PVC waterproof boat bottom and the green tarpaulin. Bit, if you have a chance, you can use a simple water spray to test it there, and then press lightly, there may be water inflow, I hope I find it can help you, and this will let me know if there is a problem with the design of the boat itself.^ ^

    Its better using a single-bladed paddle for that kayak.

    • @outdoorgaz5
      @outdoorgaz5  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Good video guys, the kayak looks lovely and stable, I've just bought a Itiwit 2 person for myself and grandson and can't wait to try it, just a Tip for you, get some swim shoes off Amazon it's better than walking on pebbles and sharp things .....👌👍🛶
