Packraft Duo EXPEDITION

Descrizione

Il DUO Expedition PackRaft è uno sviluppo completamente nuovo e può essere utilizzato in coppia o da solo. Basta installare il sedile al centro e avrai una spaziosa zattera da solista.
La principale novità dei PackRaft della gamma expedition è la possibilità di stivare i bagagli nel tubo dell’aria stesso. Questo offre diversi vantaggi: il non dover attaccare l’attrezzatura al ponte favorisce un baricentro più basso e riduce l’esposizione al vento durante la pagaiata. Inoltre, grazie all’aria e alle attrezzature che contengono, queste sacche fungono anche da dispositivi di galleggiamento in caso di buco nello scafo esterno. Una caratteristica di sicurezza aggiuntiva! Per ridurre al minimo gli squilibri sin dall’inizio, le zattere hanno due tasche integrate, una su ciascun lato. Una cerniera coperta consente di riporre l’attrezzatura in modo facile e impermeabile.
Il clou speciale: oltre alle due opzioni di stivaggio integrate a prua, c’è una chiglia gonfiabile!

Big adventure in a small bag!

It is so small and light that it can easily be combined with trekking or biking. It firstly allows you to enjoy everywhere and anytime the change of perspective being on the water and having a full expedition proven raft with you. The concept of TrekRafting is a very simple one: today, most people do not only do one but many outdoor activities such as hiking, trekking, cycling, paddling, skating, geocaching and many things more. TrekRafting combines all that with being on the water – everywhere and to anytime.

Until now, these special light weight and high-performance packrafts have been very expensive and mainly interesting for specialists. With the DUO Expedition PackRaft these things change and it becomes an affordable hobby for almost everyone. The favorable price and the high quality speak for themselves. Let yourself be inspired by this fascinating trend sport and get into the raft! By the way: The nortik packrafts are expedition proven. There have been expeditions through Scandinavia or over the Andes Mountains with them.

 

Microadventures with your nortik packraft
“Perhaps the greatest accessory to a Microadventure is a river.” This quote from Alastair Humphreys you can find in his incredible Book “Microadventures” (p. 108) where he describes several trips on the water, also and especially with Packrafts. A Microadventure is explained by the author as being “close to home, simple, short and 100% guaranteed to refresh your life”. That hits the nail on the head. If you want to plan your own Microadventure with partly or only being on the water, the nortik packraft series is your perfect companion. No matter if it is a calm river, rough white water or a lake in your area or elsewhere. With a nortik packraft your own Microadventure can start right now.

 

Material
We use a high-performance and environmental-friendly Polyurethane (PU) material for the nortik packrafts. This very strong and durable material demonstrated its strength in many field tests. It is double coated from the inner and outer side which is also a special feature and by far not standard.

 

Workmanship
We use a CAD construction and computer based cutting process that guarantees us the best cutting scheme and minimizes the need of material. It is a double coated PU-Material – means on the outside and on the inside you have a PU coating for best durability. The nortik packrafts are welded with hot air as far as possible. Some parts like the D-Rings are attached by high-frequency welding. Only what is necessary is glued (bottom parts).

 

Sustainability
PU is much more environmental-friendly than PVC and many other materials you find in the water sport segment. We searched a long time for a very durable and high-performance material that fits to the needs. In the end it can be recycled (energy recycling / material recycling).

 

Price-Performance
In our view, this really fun and enjoy generating kind of activity has to be affordable for a wide audience. The few Packrafts you can find on the market have normally more weight, bigger packing size and are much more expensive and show partly more than twice the amount a nortik packraft costs. The nortik LightRaft e.g. costs not more than a good three-layer Jacket (and it can save you from the rain, too ;-)!
