ORU RELEASES REVOLUTIONARY NEW FOLDING KAYAK

Oru Kayak

Aug 20, 2019

Oru Kayak, the original origami folding kayak company, released their revolutionary new Inlet kayak on Tuesday, August 13.

The Inlet represents the culmination of Oru’s unique “box-to-boat” experience and is the company’s most compact, lightweight and easy to set up kayak to date. For less than $1k, people can now own a 10’ long kayak that weighs 20lbs, folds into a box the size of a guitar case and can be assembled in less than 3 minutes. 
 
There is no limit to where you can store, pack, and paddle the Inlet, and with a pre-order price of $699 USD, there are zero excuses to not own a kayak. 
 
Vital Stats – the Inlet:
• From box-to-boat the Inlet takes less than 3 minutes to assemble
• Weighs 20lbs. (36% lighter than current lightest Oru Kayak – The Bay ST)
• 10’ x 31″ when assembled for stable on-water experience
• Folds into a compact box about the size of a guitar case – 40”x18”x10” (34% smaller by volume than the next smallest Oru Kayak – The Bay ST)
• Most affordable Oru Kayak to date – Kickstarter price: $699 USD, Oru’s first sub $1k boat. 
• Oru developed an entirely new folding pattern to complete the design. The first new folding pattern since the company was started in 2012.
