This is a set of the ORU KAYAK "LAKE" main unit and paddle.
ORU KAYAK is a folding kayak brand from San Francisco, USA. The idea for the kayak was actually from the Japanese origami, and the "Oru" in the brand name comes from the word "fold". The structure, lightness, and compactness of this kayak are unprecedented. The Oru Kayak is not only quick to assemble, but also light. The "Lake" is the lightest model in the lineup, weighing about 7.7 kg, which is surprisingly light for a folding kayak, and adults can easily carry it with one hand. You can easily take it anywhere, just like a bag. Furthermore, the structure of the main body is very simple. Unlike a foldable boat, it does not require a frame, and the kayak is completed in no time by simply unfolding the main body from the box and folding it along the creases. The Lake can be set up in as little as one minute, making it easy to start when you arrive at the site and to clean up after having fun.
This is a model that I would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to try kayaking.
