SNIPER

* Delivery takes approximately 2 weeks.Please confirm the delivery time before placing your order.

The "SNIPER" is a folding kayak developed with the theme of SPEED & TOUGH.
While its design inherits that of the TACTICAL FOLDING KAYAK, it is a single-person kayak with a completely different riding experience.

It is the only model in the series to adopt a hybrid frame that combines lightweight aluminum and high-rigidity fiberglass, achieving both weight reduction and increased rigidity. The spacious cargo area can accommodate long tours.

MADE IN KASAGI, KYOTO

Production is handled by FUJITA CANOE, a long-established manufacturer that has been making kayaks for over 60 years.
Every step, from the processing of the aluminum x fiberglass frame, the precise finishing of each part, and the sewing and welding of the hull deck, to the printing of the logo, is meticulously handcrafted one by one in Kasagi Town, Kyoto.
Reliable precision not found in mass production, and trusted quality from skilled craftsmen. This is the foundation of the FOLBOT KAYAK SERIES.

DESIGN & FUNCTION

The symbolic deck pads located at the bow and stern feature the US military standard MOLLE SYSTEM.
Accessories can be expanded according to the scene, and spare paddles and other gear can be tucked under the deck pads.

The smooth hull shape allows for effortless propulsion,
while the upward-curving bow that cuts through waves supports stable navigation.
Despite its total length of 445cm, it achieves a light weight of approximately 16.0kg.
It is less tiring on long tours and offers both excellent straight-line stability and maneuverability.

With a spacious cockpit and loading area, it is also ideal for camping tours.
It is a high-end folding kayak that combines tactical design with high functionality.

EQUIPMENT

The SNIPER comes standard with a variety of equipment to enhance its practicality.

• Nose Guard
  A guard to protect the bow is standard equipment.
  It reduces damage to the hull when landing on shore or using in shallow waters.

• Front Hatch
  The hatch located in front of the cockpit is convenient for packing luggage in the front of the boat.
  It is ideal for storing items you want to access quickly while paddling, such as portable food, clothing, and emergency repair kits.

• Foot Brace & Foot Mat
  The standard foot brace allows you to firmly press your feet against the boat, supporting stable paddling.
  The foot mat absorbs impact on the heels while protecting the inside of the hull.

• Spray Skirt
  Prevents water from entering the cockpit,
  enabling comfortable paddling even in rainy weather or choppy conditions.

With this equipment, it delivers high performance in a wide range of fields,
from touring to camping.
