Gumotex Swing 1

More Details

The Gumotex Swing 1, a staple in the inflatable kayak world, is relaunched for this season with smart upgrades that enhance its performance and ease of use. This closed-deck, single-person kayak offers paddlers the feel and weather protection of a hard-shell boat, while maintaining the unmatched portability of an inflatable. It's a versatile kayak, perfect for a wide variety of paddling adventures, from calm lake and coastal tours to navigating rivers up to grade 2 moving water. Its design caters to everyone, from newbies to seasoned paddlers looking for a lightweight & travel-friendly kayak.

This latest version of the Swing 1 features a newly designed deck with water-resistant zips, rubber-encased carry handles, and a drainage opening at the stern. Constructed using Gumotex's signature Nitrilon material, a tough blend of synthetic and natural rubber that is durable, lightweight and fast drying. The Swing 1's bow and stern feature reinforcing bars which support the deck and add rigidity to the whole kayak.

Comfort and convenience are also top priorities in the new Swing 1. It features an adjustable footrest and a comfortable foam-backed seat with a supportive backband. Storage is easily accessible with zippered hatches in the bow and stern, plus bungee cords on the deck for quick-grab items. The Swing 1 is incredibly easy to carry and packs down into a compact bag that fits effortlessly into a car boot or taken on public transport. The kayak comes with a removable tracking fin for better directional stability & easy-to-operate push-push valves for simple inflation and deflation.
