Oru Kayak Coast XT
Best portable performance kayak for serious coastal explorers.
This is the rare performance kayak that actually fits in your trunk. It delivers the tracking and handling of a traditional hard-shell boat, but you sacrifice the immediate rigidity of fiberglass for the unmatched convenience of a folding design. It is the ultimate solution for paddlers who crave serious adventure without the need for a roof rack.
