Let’s say you live in New York City and you are taking your lovely folding kayak (because if you live in NYC, any kayak you own must be a folding kayak, right?) on the subway (because if you live in NYC, you take the subway everywhere) and you are wondering at which stop you should [...]

Valentine’s Sale on Greenland II & Cooper. Folbot loves me. And not just because I have about $4000 worth of kayaks from them. I know because they sent me an email, direct to my inbox, full of pictures of candy hearts. The aforementioned email also said (and this is a direct quote), “I love you”. [...]

It’s very nice that Trak kayaks has their own Youtube channel, and it’s a great way for them to market their boats. I, for one, appreciate seeing how any folding kayak is assembled, although maybe I will look for one where the assembly is not sped up as it is in this video. Are we [...]

Hmmmmm… Were too many kayak buyers indecisive and waited too long, or didn’t hear about the sale in time in the first place? Well, for whatever reason, Folbot is reduxing (I just made up a new word) their cyber monday deal of 20% off everything except 10% off the citibot. I’ve never seen Folbot sell [...]

They typically have a sale at least [...]

If you haven’t seen this before, it sounds pretty awesome: http://www.clearbluehawaii.com/products/boats/napali.html I haven’t seen a lot of reviews on this particular kayak – could it be that no one can stomach the $6,320 price tag? To put that in perspective, you could buy 5.28 Folbot Citibot folding kayaks, or 15.80 Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame Inflatable Kayaks, [...]

Or at least they agree with me about the velcro and stuff. I previously posted comments about this review of the Citibot at Wired. For your reference, here is said previous post on the Wired Review of the Folbot Citibot. So I came across this post on The Materialist that agrees with me: The Materialist: [...]

Folbot just emailed me personally (okay, it was the Folbot Newsletter) to tell me that their kayaks are now available in orange. I have never particularly liked the color orange, but I imagine there are probably quite a few weirdos out there who do. So if you are a folding kayak paddler who likes to [...]
