Kayak is a very old and broad concept. From the time when humans mastered fire and stone axes, kayaks appeared. They were originally made of leather or hollowed tree trunks. They are also called canoes (so far our country's Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions still use this name). According to historical records, the founder of canoes was the Eskimos of Greenland, which were made of animal skins and bones, mainly for hunting and fishing. Today, kayaks are developed and promoted as a recreational sport.
From the material, it can be divided into: hard-shell kayaks, folding kayaks, inflatable kayaks, etc. Hard-shell kayaks are hard in texture, wear-resistant and strong, strong in impact resistance, and fast, but it is not very convenient to transport. It needs to be hung on the roof of the car. Folding kayaks are easy to carry in the car, but they can be difficult to maneuver in complex waters or oceans, and the direction of travel can be off-track. The biggest feature of inflatable kayak is that it is light and portable, but it has short battery life, slow speed, laborious use, poor impact resistance and relatively high risk.
