The Inlet is the lightest, most portable, and easiest to assemble folding kayak YET — an origami kayak for everyone. Designed for flat water, it's playful and light — and ridiculously fast to assemble. With the smallest box of any of our models, you can store it just about anywhere.
Features:
- A 10 foot kayak that folds down to an unbelievably compact box.
- At 20 pounds, it's half the weight of a traditional kayak.
- It’s compact enough to store in your car trunk (two even!), or anywhere else.
- It tracks and handles far better than inflatable kayaks.
- With the Oru Pack, you can even check it on a plane or hike it anywhere.
- It's stable, but also nimble and playful.
- It’s intended for use in calm water — think mirror-smooth lakes, rivers, and streams.
- Its large, open cockpit is perfect for paddles with a dog or small child — perfect for first-time paddlers and beginners, but great for anyone who wants a boat on the go.
- Our boats are lightweight but extraordinarily strong. They're created from 5 mm double-layered, custom-extruded polypropylene with a 10-year UV treatment. Translation? Oru Kayaks are incredibly puncture + abrasion resistant and built to last. They can withstand sliding over rocks, bumping into obstacles, and folding up tens of thousands of time.
