- Our test of the ITIWIT 1 man inflatable kayak from Decathlon
Kayaks are fun but inflatable kayaks are even better - easy to transport, easy to carry, so you can take them with you even if your car is already loaded with stuff. We tested the new ITIWIT model from Decathlon and compared it to the previous model. Which one is better?

This isn’t actually a review, it’s a demonstration!
A few mistakes in this video. Firstly, you inflate the floor first and then the bladders stopping half way to make sure the bladders are not twisted . Secondly that bung on the back is a drain bung but if left open will also fill. you left it open clearly visable. Not really a good instruction on use. Sorry
Should I get Itiwit or Intex. I really want to avoid pvc.
@@RMokros both made with pvc
@@gloppy101 Thanks, I got the Intex Excursion pro, I love it.
@@RMokros go for gumotex
I would disagree regarding you comment as to the earlier versions being superior.
I had the original Itiwit 2 and it leaked badly due to the position of the seam between the floor and side walls. (5-10 litres during a 3 hour sail.
Fortunately replaced under warranty by Decathlon (top marks) and in my opinion the redesigned 2017 model in your video is far superior to the early model.
That said I think we would agree that they are a good portable kayak.
Ps did you notice that your drain plug wasn’t fastened? (not that it makes much difference in calm waters) 🤫
Thank you for sharing your review!
It works right but at the end of the day...you will check the tissue is porous and doesnt dry in three days at least.
Brill vid.many thanks
Love this kayak but there doesn’t seem to be a way I can buy this in the US
Hola!
Gracias por el video primero de todo 😊
Mi duda es que si lo utilizo para zonas de rio poco profundas y lo utilizo sin quillas sería posible no?
Imagino que se verá algo afectada la estabilidad pero no mucho no?
Gracias!
Bonjour,je suis pas un pro du kayak...mais je peux te dire que c'est mieux avec les ailerons!ça aide beaucoup pour sentir votre kayak...autrement,il s en va en dérive...on a du mal dans le grand courant de jusant,par exemple...une fois,j avais simplement oublié de les mettre....et j avais un mal fou pour maîtriser le bateau...et puis,ça prend pas beaucoup d eau,...10 ou 15 cm de plus,moi je essayer de mettre une voile dessus...c'est vrai que si tu échoués souvent ...sans dérives....c'est mieux...c'est un 2 places que j ai ,c est plus grand que sur la vidéo...tout dépend de ce que tu vas faire ...bye!
I have bought this kayak today and I would like to know what is the function of the hole at the bottom of the boat. thank you very much and regards from Spain!!!! nice video
Hello there and muchas gracias for your comment :) When you use the kayak you will notice that there is always some water that drops from the paddles inside the boat. The hole on the bottom serves to get rid of this water once you finish your kayak trip. Simply open it on dry land and let the water flow outside to keep it dry when you store it in the bag. Have a great time with it!
In the Video its open in the water. 😂
Ce qu'il manque dans cette vidéo c'est le " aprés la balade " ( dégonflage ...etc ) ;-)
ma quando viene messo in acqua il tappo di scolo dell'acqua non dovrebbe essere chiuso?
is the seat that comfortable? i've kayaked before and gotten a bad back pretty quickly. cheers
The Itiwit Kayaks are not worth the money. I hope the packraft 100 is worth it, will test it this Sunday.
and how it was?
@@sundayy7675
It's slightly too small for me (I'm 1.82) My wife loves it but I always have to take her stuff on my spacious Helios 😂
Did I miss the review?
Will I get the pumper with it?
What is your verdict?
We love this kayak, we have been using it from 4 years and still works perfectly :)
@@trekkerfox7860 Okay! Are there any cons at all? Compared to other kayaks you've tried?
For example: It seems to alot "left to right, right to left" instead of just going mostly straight when paddling on one of the sides.
find videos with only repetitive music for audio very annoying. I came to learn of the testing of a product. I got a sales presentation.
Which is more rugged, this or the Intex Challenger K1?
The itiwit is far more rugged. The intex is cheep and will puncture easily.
Is there enough space for legs if you are slightly taller? 6 feet and more
No so shut up!
But would you recommend it?
Most definitely yes!
As would I having had 3. 2 itiwit 2’s and now a 3.
:) if you're a type of sunny casual beginer kayakers than you can go for it! it's a wide boat which makes it quite stable however it decreases the glide speed.. after you've finished kayaking
you have to dryout the boat skin which takes at least! one hour on a hot sunny day because of the "textil" cover which can be very anoying. It's good for cruzing around beaches, lakes for short excursion (10km
What do you really think is the max weight capacity? 110 or 120Kg? I weigh 90Kg (depends in which month we`re in ;-) ) and was wondering if the boat would suit me or should I look for the larger version. Like the size and weight of this boat very much. What do you think Trekker Fox?
One of us weighs 87Kg and used it together with his dog which weighs 15Kg. So it should suit you :)
That is awesome news. Thanks for your quick respons. Great review!
Ps. WOuld you say it is a fast boat? Compared to a hard shell?
@@Tomerus_NL hard shells are always faster due to their sleeker profile.
i am 115 kg 😟 what about me ?🤔
You left the drainage hole open @ 2:49.
На плечи и пошла, а шмотки, спальник, палатка? Продукты на месяц?
👍
Music but not actual user comments. Redo.
Cheers👍🇬🇧
Cheers :)
attenta😲 il tappo della canoa è rimasto aperto,puoi affondare🙊🤣
No, quella è una valvola di sentina, serve per far scolare l'acqua che entra da sopra
2.49 il tappo il tappo it's no closed glu glu glu glu
Doesnt look so stable
Курсовой устойчивости 0, и плавники не помогают
Well that was a absolute waste of my time...... Review my posterior.
It does not claim to be a review, only a test.
