The Zelgear Spark 520 is a long-distance kayak designed for two to three paddlers. With a width of 85 cm, the boat is very stable, comfortable, and provides ample space inside. Multiple fixtures for attaching seats, knee supports, or the cockpit are available.
For two paddlers on multi-day excursions (over two weeks), this touring kayak is the ideal choice. Alternatively, it can accommodate three or four paddlers on day trips with less luggage. The Zelgear Spark 520 can be paddled solo, in tandem, or even with four individuals. All necessary attachments are pre-mounted, and the basic set comes with three seats. An additional seat can be purchased if needed.
The V-shape of the Dropstitch bottom provides the boat with high stability. This unique design shapes the contours of the hull, giving the kayak exceptional rigidity and excellent straight-line tracking. The average paddling speed for two individuals is around 7 km/h. The kayak can be set up in 5-10 minutes. The intuitive assembly of the kayak takes 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 Zelgear Spark 520 comes with three seats, footrests, and three pairs of thigh straps. With the included double fin, you can improve the directional stability and maneuverability of the Zelgear Spark 520 in the water. Additionally, you receive a repair kit for minor damages, an air pump, and a transport bag. This allows you to store, maintain, and, of course, use your Spark 520 optimally in the water.
For the Zelgear Spark 520, in addition to classic accessories like paddles, pumps, or life jackets, we can also recommend a pressure gauge for measuring the operating pressure. This ensures that you inflate your Spark 520 correctly and safely.
Additionally, the Zelgear Spark 520 fully unleashes its potential with a rudder system, which makes maneuvering and steering easier.
To protect your gear from splashing water, you can purchase a spray deck for your Zelgear Spark 520.
If used by four people, you will also need an additional seat.
The Zelgear Spark 520 can be easily assembled in just a few minutes with a good air pump. The drop-stitch floor is inflated to 0.5 bar, while the sides are inflated to 0.25 bar. The included seat is already inflated after a few pump strokes and quickly attached to the kayak. The double fin in the Zelgear Spark 520 is inserted into a special pocket at the rear and secured by inflation.
The Zelgear Spark 520 is a versatile kayak for 1-4 persons. The Spark 520 offers ample space for luggage, making it perfect for longer trips. While space is somewhat limited with four people, there's nothing stopping you from enjoying a day trip with friends or children. However, you will need an additional seat for your Zelgear Spark 520.
Das Zelgear Spark 520 ist für hohe Belastungen ausgelegt und setzt wie alle Modelle der Spark-Serie auf eine Kombination aus robusten PVC-Seitenkammern und einem hochdruckfesten Dropstitch-Boden. Dieser wird mit 0,5 bar befüllt und verleiht dem langen Luftkajak eine beeindruckend steife und widerstandsfähige Struktur. Damit hält das Spark 520 auch bei voller Beladung und anspruchsvollen Touren zuverlässig stand.
Die UV-beständigen PVC-Seitenkammern mit 0,25 bar Betriebsdruck sind abriebfest und für regelmäßige Nutzung auf Seen und Flüssen konzipiert. Ein großer Vorteil ist der herausnehmbare Dropstitch-Boden, der bei Bedarf jederzeit ausgetauscht werden kann – ein entscheidender Faktor für die lange Lebensdauer dieses besonders großen Tourenkajaks.
Trotz einer Länge von 520 cm lässt sich das Zelgear Spark 520 für den Transport erstaunlich kompakt verstauen. Der Dropstitch-Boden kann separat gefaltet werden, was das Packmaß deutlich reduziert und das Handling erleichtert. Mit einem Gewicht von 25 kg bleibt das Boot für zwei Personen gut tragbar und passt zusammengelegt in den Kofferraum größerer Fahrzeuge oder in den Stauraum eines Wohnmobils.
Das Material trocknet schnell, sodass das Spark 520 nach der Tour rasch verpackt werden kann. Für Paddler, die ein langes, geräumiges Kajak mit hoher Reisegeschwindigkeit, viel Komfort und dennoch guter Transportierbarkeit suchen, ist dieses Modell ideal.
