Based on popular demand, AirKayaks packaged the best-selling AdvancedFrame inflatable compact kayak with upgraded accessories from Advanced Elements - in a limited edition blue - to create the ultimate AdvancedFrame DS Series™.
Now, AirKayaks introduces the limited edition AdvancedFrame DS XL Series™* inflatable compact kayak, adding 5 inches in length to create a kayak comfortable enough for both smaller and taller paddlers. The longer, streamlined body - in conjunction with the high pressure floor - provides better tracking and increased glide with minimal increase in weight, while an adjustable foot peg system allows paddlers to find the support perfect for their size and paddling style.
Removable rigid ribs in the bow and stern are made of high grade aluminum, allowing the bow to slice through water like a knife. The stern acts as a skeg, which increases the tracking performance. When the chambers inflate, these ribs are pressed against the outer cover and form a high performance bow and stern which rival the tracking of a hard-shell day touring kayak yet still folds up compactly!
This Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame DS XL inflatable kayak is manufactured from extremely durable materials and high-end components. There is plenty of on-board storage space without cramping your leg room, making extended trips much more enjoyable. It sets up in just a few minutes, and is compact enough to take along for an adventure anywhere. The Advanced Elements inflatable kayak's durable double-coated fabric, heavy-duty PVC and electronically welded seams can take bumps, scrapes and rough water.
If you love the water, but like to travel light, this sleek compact kayak will add a new dimension to your outdoor adventures. From lakes, and mild rivers, to bays and estuaries, it is a delight to get on the water quickly; keep it deflated in the trunk of your car and the next time you're driving along a river, lake or bay, you can be fishing or paddling in just minutes! This Advanced Elements inflatable kayak is the perfect watercraft for campers, Rvers, travelers or those that just don’t want the hassle of roof racks!

I purchased the AdvancedFrame DS-XL-AE1044DS-XL kayak and it has become my go to kayak out of the six kayaks I own. It is roomy and maneuverable yet tracks well in windy conditions yet small enough to be convenient. I absolutely love the drop stitch floor and I wish my AdvancedFrame firefly had one. I keep the kayak in my car for opportune times since it is so easy and quick to inflate and put in the water.
So easy and fast to set-up. Overall it takes about 10 to 15 minutes. Get the full package deal for overall enjoyment. Maneuvers excellent for a short kayak.
This is very nice... Packs up small and is easy to pump up up. However. The pump has several nozzles, but no labels... So I have no idea which nozzle to use to pump up the seat and conning... None of them fit. That needs better instructions. Also, as a guy who is 6"1' @ 210lb, I found the leg area very narrow. You lose a lot of space with the sides inflated. So, I do recommend it... But they need better instructions... And need to label the nozzles with the chamber number that they are for.
Satisfied with the product, delivery and service.
This Kayak is very roomy and tracks well in the water, especially after using the Firefly. The best feature is the drop stitch floor which supports and lifts my body weight up to prevent sagging and thus increases paddling speed without losing tracking ability.
