Launching! New Inflatable Kayaks from Jobe
Thanks to its experience in the world of inflatable paddle surfing, the Dutch brand Jobe, characterized by innovation, high quality materials and design, brings us this season the new range of inflatable kayaks, designed for 1 or 2 people. We reserve one now!
The range consists of the Jobe Croft, Jobe Gama and Jobe Tasman, three different options that share some design elements but with different features designed for three levels of experience. With comfortable seating, inflation pump, designed for sports and walking in our coves.
What do the three models have in common?
Two-person capacity: all three models are designed to comfortably accommodate two people, making them ideal for adventures as a couple or with a friend.
Comfortable seats with fastening system: they have a Velcro fastening system, providing ergonomic support during long voyages.
Include paddles and fin system: all models include removable paddles for paddling and feature a fin system for improved stability and control.
Inflation and transport accessories: the kayaks are delivered with an inflation pump and a nylon carrying bag and repair kit, ideal for mishaps on adventure outings.
Durability: Croft, Gama and Tasman models have been manufactured with durable materials such as canvas, neoprene and nylos to withstand any situation in the water.
Spacious and comfortable: all three models are designed to be extremely comfortable during the trip, with enough space for one or two paddlers.
What makes them different?
There is an obvious difference between one version of kayaks and another: the dimensions. The Tasman model is the longest and narrowest model (440×81.5cm), the Gama model is the intermediate one (365×95.5cm) and the Croft model is the smallest of the three (340×90cm), although it offers greater width, and therefore, more stability.
Narrower kayaks tend to be faster and more efficient on the water, but they can also be less stable and require more advanced paddling technique to maintain balance. This is why the Tasman model is ideal for expert paddlers. In contrast, wider kayaks, such as the Croft, offer greater stability, making it ideal for beginners.
Fins system
- The Tasman and Gama models are equipped with an EZ-LOCK click FIN fin system, which provides easy installation and greater stability in the water.
- The Croft model features two Click-Lock fins, offering greater maneuverability and control for beginners.
Oars
- Both the Tasman and Gama models are equipped with four-piece fiberglass paddle blades with nylon blades, a combination of high performance and durability.
- The Croft model offers aluminum oars with nylon blades, providing a lighter and more comfortable option.
Valves
- The Tasman kayak is equipped with three Bravo high-pressure valves, which facilitate fast and efficient inflation and optimal pressure adjustment in the kayak.
- The Gama model, on the other hand, uses two pressure release valves and three Bravo high-pressure valves, providing greater control over the kayak's internal pressure and greater versatility in terms of adjustment.
- The Croft kayak uses three Boston valves, which offer reliable performance and excellent resistance to air leakage during navigation.
