It is amazing. Carves water brilliantly. Tracks amazingly. Handles like a boat half its size. Great stability and very fast.
– Gear Junkie
When put together, it doesn't look like something that came out of a square box. It looks like a real kayak. And man, does it fold cleverly.
– Outside Magazine
Oru Kayak makes getting on the water an easy and seamless experience one that single handedly makes the sport of kayaking much more accessible for those that don't have the traditional transportation methods needed to cart a kayak around.
