Bluewave Glider (Single, Yellow)

Inflatable Single Kayak

From: Bluewave

The Bluewave Inflatable Kayak Glider is a single-person kayak built for lakes, calm rivers and seaside paddling. It comes as a complete set with a four-piece paddle, raised seat, skeg fin, foam footrest, carry bag and two-way pump. Nothing extra to buy before you hit the water.

Construction uses triple layer PVC with reinforced drop-stitching. This gives the kayak exceptional rigidity once inflated, so it holds its shape well against waves and current. Three separate air chambers mean a puncture in one won't sink the whole kayak.

Inflation takes just 7 minutes using the included two-way speed pump, reaching 10 PSI. Deflated, it packs down to 56cm x 56cm x 30cm and weighs only 14.3kg. It supports paddlers and gear up to 225kg, suiting beginners through to intermediate paddlers.

Product Features

Triple layer PVC build - The hull uses reinforced 1000 denier PVC with thousands of internal beams between the walls. This stops flex and wobble in the water. Riders get a stable platform that behaves closer to a hard-shell kayak than a typical inflatable. Quick 7 minute inflation - The two-way speed pump pushes air in on both the up and down stroke, reaching 10 PSI fast. No separate frame or backbone to fit. Just unfold, pump through the three valves and you're ready to paddle. Three air chamber design - Splitting the hull into three separate chambers means a single puncture won't cause a full sink. Enough air remains in the other chambers to get you back to shore safely.
225kg weight capacity - The kayak carries a paddler plus kit weighing up to 225kg total. This covers most adults along with camping gear, dry bags or a dog, without compromising how the kayak sits in the water. Adjustable raised seat - The seat fixes at four points so it won't slide during paddling. A high back gives support on longer trips. It stores flat and rebuilds quickly when you're ready to launch. Compact carry bag - Deflated, the kayak folds down to 56cm x 56cm x 30cm and weighs 14.3kg. It fits in a car boot or cupboard and there's no need for roof racks or trailers.

FAQs

How long does the Bluewave Glider take to inflate?

The two-way speed pump included in the set inflates the kayak to 10 PSI in around 7 minutes. The pump pushes air in on both strokes, which speeds up the process compared to single-action pumps.

What's included in the box?

You get the kayak itself, a four-piece paddle, a raised seat, a skeg fin, a foam footrest, a carry bag and the two-way pump. There's nothing else to buy to get out on the water.

How much weight can the kayak carry?

The Glider has a maximum load capacity of 225kg. This covers the paddler's bodyweight plus any gear, dry bags or extra passengers such as a dog.

What happens if the kayak gets punctured?

The hull is split into three separate air chambers. If one chamber punctures the other two hold enough air to keep the kayak afloat and get you back to shore.

How heavy is the kayak and how does it pack down?

The kayak weighs 14.3kg. Deflated it folds down to 56cm x 56cm x 30cm, small enough to fit in the included carry bag and store in a car boot or cupboard.

Is this kayak suitable for beginners?

Yes. The Glider suits beginners through to intermediate paddlers. It's designed for lakes, calm rivers and seaside use rather than white water or fast-moving rivers.

Does the seat move around when paddling?

No. The seat fixes at four points on the kayak floor, so it stays in position during use. It has a high back for support on longer paddling sessions.

What material is the kayak made from?

The Glider uses triple layer PVC with reinforced drop-stitching between the walls. This gives it a UV and oil resistant finish along with heavy duty inflation valves at each chamber.
