Meet the Lake by Oru Kayak, the world’s lightest and most compact folding kayak, transforming the kayaking experience. Inspired by origami, this kayak effortlessly changes from a small box into a fully functional, rigid boat. Weighing just 18 pounds, it’s perfect for casual paddlers, travelers, and outdoor enthusiasts who need a portable, easy-to-assemble kayak.
The Lake addresses the common issues of rigid kayaks—weight, storage, and transportation. It’s ideal for calm waters like lakes, rivers, and bays. As the lightest folding kayak available, it fits easily in a car trunk, making it great for hiking, cycling, or public transit adventures.
This innovative kayak requires no tools or special skills to set up, allowing you to assemble it in minutes. Made from durable, 5 mm double-layered, custom-extruded polypropylene, the Lake is built to last with impressive puncture and abrasion resistance.
For added comfort, the Lake+ model includes an adjustable backrest, thick cushioned seating, and an adjustable footrest, providing support and comfort on the water. The spacious cockpit, measuring 66” x 44”, offers ample room and accommodates paddlers up to 6’4” with a weight limit of 250 lbs.
When packed, the Lake folds down to just 42” x 10” x 18”, so you’ll never struggle to find storage space. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned paddler, Oru Kayak’s Lake offers a hassle-free, enjoyable kayaking experience, giving you the freedom to explore waters near and far.
