More About the Aire Super Lynx

The Aire Super Lynx was designed as a versatile inflatable kayak that can handle moderate whitewater but also perform quite well on flatwater.  It is ideal for people who want to do longer excursions with lots of gear or families that want to bring a child or their dogs. 

Most whitewater inflatable kayaks are not suited for heavier weight and that is what makes this kayak special.  It will hold up to 600 pounds and can be loaded right up with absolutely no worry. 

It is extremely tough and very durable.  As with most of Aire’s products this inflatable kayak can be dragged over gravel, can hit jagged rocks or sharp sticks and glide over the water with minimal effort.  It will hold up beautifully and with a 10 year warranty you know you are getting backed by a great company.

Excellent Features and Options…

The Aire Super Lynx comes with comfortable seats should you be paddling on flatwater and optional thigh straps if you plan on using it in the rapids.  It is a self-bailing kayak so if you are in whitewater you have the option of allowing the kayak to rid itself of excess water.  However several people have commented that you will definitely get wet as the water in the self-bailing area gets pushed into the kayak – however this is pretty standard.

If you plan on using your inflatable kayak mostly in flatwater you should know that it does not come with a rudder and although its sleek design will glide nicely, the tracking can only be described as descent. 

The hull speed however is very good.  There are other inflatable kayaks that are much better designed for just flatwater and still others that are better designed for just whitewater.  However this kayak was built to handle both quite adequately if not very well, and offers the versatility of being able to have fun in both types of water. That versatility also makes it great for traveling.

Final Thoughts On the Aire Super Lynx

If you are looking for a very well made multi-purpose tandem inflatable kayak that can hold a ton of weight, be used in rivers, flatwater, or the sea as well as work great for fishing or to bring on a bigger boat, the Aire Super Lynx inflatable kayak will fulfill all of your needs and last for a very very long time.  It is a very high quality inflatable kayak.
