A 15′ (457cm) kayak that can be paddled solo or tandem, The Convertible Elite combines Advanced Elements aluminum rib-frame technology in the bow and stern, and rigid drop-stitch technology in the floor, to provide paddling performance that rivals that of a hard-shell kayak. The versatile open deck design can be converted to a closed deck kayak in a matter of seconds by simply zipping in the optional single or double deck conversions (see SKU: AVEDCD) and the upgraded lumbar seats provide comfort for hours of paddling!Features Drop-Stitch Technology!:As shown in Advanced Elements inflatable standup paddle boards (SUPs), drop-stitch technology allows Advanced Elements to create high pressure forms that are extremely rigid.
