AdvancedFrame Sport
The Advanced Elements AdvancedFrame Sport is a light-weight version of our popular AdvancedFrame kayak. Although nearly identical in shape and form to the original AdvancedFrame, it sports a large cockpit opening for easy entry and exit.
AdvancedFrame
The AdvancedFrame is a hybrid of a folding frame kayak and an inflatable kayak. Utilizing built-in aluminum ribs in the bow and stern, it slices through water like a knife and rivals the trackability of hard-shell kayaks.
Lagoon
The sporty Advanced Elements Lagoon 1 kayak is so unique that you will have complete strangers asking questions about it. Its bow and stern have fixed rigid forms that help cut through the waves and keep you on course.
