Hobie iTrek 9 Ultralight
Portable kayaking fun just got a whole lot easier with the Hobie iTrek series and if you are looking for a lightweight kayak then the iTrek 9 Ultralight is your ticket to fun on the water! Weighing in at just 16.8 kg / 37lbs fully rigged including the Mirage Drive, Seat and Rudder, you can be sure that carrying and transporting this kayak is very easy! The whole set up will fold away and pack down into a handy storage bag for easy storage. A great choice for summer getaways, holidays abroad and campervan expeditions, or for those who just want it easy getting onto the water.
The iTrek 9 Ultralight features a durable inflatable dropstitch hull, allowing for high inflation pressure and a near-rigid feel to the hull once inflated. This provides excellent performance nearing what you can get with a rigid kayak. The iTrek is supplied with both a high-pressure hand-pump and a high-volume electric pump giving you options for easy inflation. Simply clip on the seat and rudder, slot in the Mirage Drive and you are ready for fun on the water! The EVA standing pad offers grip and comfort underfoot when not pedalling.
Equipped with a Mirage Drive GT with Kick Up Fins, this drive system keeps things simple for ease of use and for easy maintenance. Featuring Glide Technology (GT) where roller bearings are used at pivot points for a smoother pedalling experience. The Kick-Up Fins automatically kick up out of harms way if you strike an underwater object which in turn reduces the chance of damaging your fins. The pedal crank arms are adjustable to allow for users of various heights to use the iTrek.
