AM AQUA MARINACascade All-Around SUP-Kayak

Right, waited for a sunny calm day to beach launch this hybrid? and try it out. Firstly it is very heavy to carry in its bag which after one careful use has stitching that has disintegrated. It is really too heavy for a flimsy carry bag, it should have a robust case made from decent quality material with wheels, I have a Bic Yakka folding kayak that has a fantastic practical case. I found the kayak sit in style reasonable although for long legs it is cramped. Sit on top in anything other than mill pond is unstable, it capsized far too easily despite it’s width! I have not tried SUP mode as it was not mirror flat and finding it capsized so easily as sit on top I was not confident. There were quite a few SUPs out at the same time so conditions were technically suitable. My humble advice would be to not try to combine modes, get a vessel for each singular sport. The load capacity is however great but you wouldn’t want to capsize with all your touring gear! It was easy to right, grab opposite handle and flip it, righted first go. I will only use on river or inland water unless flat mill pond calm. It is heavy, I’m strong and it’s not a boat one person can carry, you need a trolley. So not suitable for slopes or pebble beaches with a slope unless you have help or are a man mountain strong man! Really quite generally disappointed with it. It is also expensive/overpriced for what it is.

La pompa è arrivata funzionante ma con il manometro rotto. Mi risulta impossibile avere un controllo di dettaglio sul gonfiaggioLa pagaia (in modalità kayak) ha le pale con la stessa angolazione invece che sfasate come una pagaia normale da canoa/kayak. Bastava mettere più fori nella parte intermedia per dare la possibilità agli utilizzatori di avere uno sfasamento in linea con le proprie necessità, ma non è stato fatto. Trovo questo errore di progettazione molto grave, perché nessuna pagaia da canoa/kayak è fatta in questo modo. Risolverò comunque il problema utilizzando una pagaia già in mio possesso, ma non era quella l'ideaPer il resto la struttura del sup sembra buona, funzionale e ben rifinita

The media could not be loaded.  Schade. Das Bot ist an der Naht undicht und die Pumpe ist defekt. Leider muss ich zurück schicken.

Ein prinzipiell tolles Teil, allerdings war sehr ägerlich, dass der in der Bestellung beinhaltete Rucksack mit Reisßverschluss gefehlt hat....muss ich also nachfordern...kostet Zeit und Nerven....

But on the hard side to manually inflate and deflate but everything else as advertised
