The Zelgear Spark 450 is a highly versatile and popular tandem touring kayak. With a width of 83 cm, the boat is very stable, comfortable, and provides ample space inside. Multiple fixtures for attaching seats, knee supports, or the cockpit are available.
The Zelgear Spark 450 can be paddled solo, in tandem, or even with three paddlers. The basic set comes with two seats, and an additional seat can be purchased if needed. All necessary attachments are pre-mounted for this purpose. The V-shape of the Dropstitch bottom provides the inflatable boat with high stability. This unique design shapes the contours of the hull, giving the kayak exceptional rigidity and excellent straight-line tracking. The kayak can be set up in approximately 5-10 minutes. The kayak's skeg (directional fin) is inserted into a special pocket at the stern and secured by inflating the boat.
The average paddling speed for two individuals is around 6.5 km/h. Speeds of up to 9.5 km/h can also be achieved and sustained over an extended period.

The Zelgear Spark 450 comes with two seats, two foot braces, and two pairs of thigh straps. The included double fin enhances the kayak’s directional stability and maneuverability. Additionally, the package contains a repair kit for minor damage, an air pump, and a transport bag, providing everything you need to store, maintain, and transport your Spark 450 easily.
In addition to essential gear such as a paddle or life vest, we also recommend using a pressure gauge to monitor the kayak’s operating pressure with the Zelgear Spark 450.
A kayak trolley, such as the Eckla Beach Rolly, makes transporting the Spark 450 much easier and helps when carrying it over obstacles. To secure the trolley to the kayak, we offer specially designed D-rings.
The Spark 450 truly reaches its full potential when paired with a rudder system, which significantly improves maneuvering and steering. For additional protection of your gear from splashes, a spray deck designed for the Zelgear Spark 450 can also be purchased.
If paddling with three people, an additional seat is required.
The Zelgear Spark 450 can be inflated in just a few minutes using the included air pump. Start by inflating the drop-stitch floor to 0.5 bar, then fill the side chambers to 0.25 bar.
The side tubes feature built-in overpressure valves to prevent overinflation. The included seats can be easily inflated by mouth using their screw valves. The supplied double fin is inserted into a sleeve at the stern and secured automatically as the kayak is inflated.
The Zelgear Spark 450 is a kayak designed for one to three paddlers. It provides enough space for two adults, two adults with a child, or a single paddler with gear for multi-day adventures. While space is a bit tight for three adults, it works well for a day trip with children. For three paddlers, an additional seat is required for your Spark 450.
The Zelgear Spark 450 is an extremely versatile kayak. It performs well on both lakes and faster-flowing rivers. Its generous width provides excellent stability, even in choppy or moving water.
The Zelgear Spark 450 features the proven combination of durable PVC side chambers and a high-pressure drop-stitch floor, inflated to 0.5 bar. This construction provides a very stiff, resilient hull that remains reliably stable even under heavy loads and on longer tours.
The side tubes, inflated to 0.25 bar, are made from abrasion-resistant, UV-stable PVC, making them suitable for frequent use on rivers and lakes. A key quality feature of the Spark series is the removable drop-stitch floor, which can be replaced if needed, significantly extending the kayak’s lifespan and ensuring long-term durability.
Despite its 450 cm length, the Zelgear Spark 450 is easy to transport thanks to the removable drop-stitch floor, which allows for a much smaller packed size. Weighing 22 kg, the kayak remains manageable, especially when carried by two people, and fits comfortably into larger car boots or camper storage compartments.
The material dries quickly, allowing the Spark 450 to be packed away immediately after a trip. Its straightforward handling makes it an excellent choice for multi-day tours, holidays, or anyone seeking a spacious, versatile kayak with an easy transport solution.
