According to the jury of PADDLEexpo, the European trade show for paddle sports that takes place in Nuremberg every year.
THAYA is a boat that can stand up to all situations
We added a Drop-Stitch bottom to a light and easy-to-pack inflatable boat. Drop-Stitch technology involves joining thousands of threads to opposing layers of fabric to create a solid structure. Due to this new solid bottom, the kayak is more stable, more manoeuvrable and faster. At the same time, it does not add weight and can be easily folded into a backpack.

The secret to a smooth journey lies in the details
Tracking fin
The tracking fin makes it much easier to manoeuvre the kayak. As a result, there is no more zigzagging because the tracking fin helps to keep the boat on a straight course.
Drop-Stitch
The solid bottom is the result of joining thousands of threads to the inner walls of opposing layers of fabric. This makes the boat so stable that you can stand in it, as well as making it difficult to capsize.
Adjustable seats
Even if you buy a third seat for in the boat, each passenger will have plenty of room and comfort. We respect the rules, and so all our boats comply with or exceed the legal standards.
Tested on humans
I´m not an extremely experienced paddler, but I´m a caring father and worry a lot about my children falling overboard and/or being swept downstream. The THAYA kayak was the answer. It´s just wonderful! It combines the shape and speed of a narrow kayak with the stability and space of a raft. It can even handle quite big waves. What do I consider the biggest advantage of this kayak? It doesn´t just have a standard floor, but a rigid one! You can literally walk in the kayak while you float downstream! It´s also lightweight, which means it´s no problem to walk a few kilometres with the THAYA on your back. I can´t wait for our next adventure!
The THAYA is a very versatile kayak that will be comfortable on both lakes and Gr.2 rivers (with short Gr.3 sections if you use foredeck splash cover). The interior space is big enough for two people who can paddle without mutual interference or a person with all the necessary camping equipment for several days. It's very stable, easy to maneuver with its drift and I really appreciate its Drop-stitch construction which makes this boat strong, efficient and comfortable. Its compactness once stored in its bag allows easy transport by car, train, plane ... to access exceptional practice sites.
Great boat for calm, gently flowing water. The Drop-Stitch floor is absolutely amazing and gives the boat incredible rigidity, which I and my paddle partner especially appreciated when entering fast flows or when certain manoeuvres required tilt. The rigid floor also makes it much easier to get in and out of the boat, as well as move around it once afloat. A consequence of the flat floor is that the boat has a slight tendency to rotate, which means that on calm water it is essential to use the fin included with the boat to help maintain course.
The best view of the world is from a boat. You can enjoy carefree boating with the THAYA.
