The Zelgear Igla 490 is the big brother of the Igla 410. It's comfortable, extremely fast, lightweight, and agile. With a width of 78 cm, the Igla 490 is very stable, comfortable, and offers plenty of space inside. Multiple fittings for securing seats, knee braces, or the cockpit are available.
Ideal for up to two paddlers with gear for multi-day trips, the Zelgear 490 is the perfect choice. The boat comes with two seats.
The high stability of the boat is achieved through the V-shape of the dropstitch bottom. This unique design shapes the contours of the hull, providing exceptional rigidity and excellent tracking.
The assembly of the kayak takes approximately 5-10 minutes. The skeg (the directional fin) of the kayak is inserted into a tab at the stern and fixed by inflating the boat.
