When researching kayaks for my family I wanted something that was easy to transport and stable in the water. We saw these on a rafting trip the previous year and they looked really fun. I could not find any vidoes on youtube during my research so I made my own. We ordered 3 of these from tubeproinc.com and we have been really impressed. Personally, the backrest is my favorite feature of this kayak as it makes longer trips so much more comfortable. This is the largest, 70” x 40” (175 cm x 100 cm), of the 3 versions they have and I'm glad I went with the XL as my 6 year old daughter can easily fit in it with an adult, without issue. I hope you enjoy the video!

*EDIT* (June 23rd, 2021)
Since this video we have done a 7 hour kayaking trip on the AuSable River in Michigan with these and I have follow-up info. These handled well but about half way through the trip I noticed my kayak and my son's lost a considerable amount of air. Not enough to cause an emergency but enough to where if I angled myself too much to the left or right I would get water in the kayak at the rear sides. Keep in mind I am a heavy set male so my kayak already sits lower in the water at the rear. In hindsight I've learned that on the next trip I will keep my Ryobi inflator with me in a dry bag. We almost brought it but decided last second to leave it behind. Other than this, the rest of the trip was absolutely fantastic but very exhausting as we did not intend on a 7 hour trip with a 6 year old. we just misjudged the distance. Also, these, unlike regular kayaks, are not as quick and maneuverable, even with the fins underneath. If you are looking for speed, these are not a good choice. But stability was perfect.
