This video shows two adult paddlers in the W500 kayak. Their weight plus their gear’s weight amounts to a total of 350 lbs.
From watching this movie it’s clear to see this kayak is suitable for paddling when loaded with additional weight, but we recommend to avoid loading it more, doing so would affect its performance.
The W500 works as a perfect canoe as well, both solo and tandem. You can paddle it canoe-style, using single blade (canoe) paddles.
Good movie. While not the fastest kayak out there, the little w500 glides nicely even with two passengers
Nicely done guys. Shows the speed and comfort even two folks can have in a W500. The boat moves along well and would easily out run any tandem sit on top out there.
