What's The Difference Between Oru Kayaks & Inflatable Kayaks?

Oru Kayaks have many advantages over inflatables. 

• Easy clean up - Oru Kayaks need a quick wipe down with a towel after use, then you can fold them up until next time. Inflatables need to dry out for a day after use to prevent mildew.
• Better tracking - Oru Kayaks cut through the water and track like a dream due to the rigid hull. Inflatables often have poor tracking and can be difficult to paddle, especially since they sit higher in the water.
• More durable - Inflatables always have a risk of puncture, so rocks and boulders pose a risk. Oru Kayaks have an extremely tough hull made out of corrugated plastic, and while we also recommend avoiding sharp rocks and boulders when possible, our boats are designed to handle bumps and scratches along the way.
• Fast use - Once used to the set-up, Oru Kayaks take less than 10 minutes to set up and to pack up, while inflatables can be difficult to pack up and fold back into their bag and take time to set up.
