Who wants one of these?? Please share this on social media and with your friends to help us spread the word!! I appreciate you guys!!

Looks awesome! Great deal. Inflatables are gonna become more and more popular when people see what they can do and how durable they are.

Does the regular hobie pedal drive fit in the well of the air 9?

I was ready to invest but found nothing about any kind of warranty. Looks like a taller chair would be more comfortable as well.

Looks great buddy! Shared on my FB story.

This is a smart idea for a multi type trips. If fishing isn’t your number one priority has a lot of options it looks like. Overlanding to multi spots needing a small package do it all option seems like it could work for fly fishing great 👍.

That looks exactly what I'm looking for. I want to get rid of the big solid kayak I have and get something like this. I don't get to fish very much anymore, but this would work.

How cautious do you think one would need to be with fishing hooks and spiny fish? Is the material durable to withstand an accidental poke here or there?

Does it come with a paddle? Cup holder?

Can I use my 180 mirage drive in your Lightning Kayaks?

how will it stand up against a big, sharp hook?

I like it I’m just worried about oyster no matter how careful you are you will hit the razor sharp oyster, how will it fare against oyster ?

Not in my neck of the woods. I’d pop it on the oysters. I’m definitely interested in the nomad . If I get in the market for a new one it’s definitely going to be the first one I check out.

Where can they be demo? If I pre order can I return it if I don't like it?

Are you going to have a bait tank available for it come in handy for greenbacks offshore

That looks good Robert. Will you guys be offering one without the pedal drive so one can fit a Hobie drive and also maybe a different color scheme, camo or grey and orange.

To the reader of this comment that’s in the market for an inflatable SUP, I can tell you this… if it’s Lighting it’s solid. I’ve owned my Lightning kayak for years and go out weekly in saltwater… ZERO problems. Keep the good work up and those prices low Lightning.

Where’s the truck coming from in the ocean? So how does it really handle a 6/0 treble hook on a diamond jig? How does it handle rock cod spines ?

I would have to use it to see how reliable it is. You have your GF modeling it. That’s ok saving money. But I want anchor and Fishfinders. I don’t do saltwater. I inland fish lakes and ponds. Great video, Thanks for sharing this model. It looks promising for some.

I would consider getting one but I don't want to wait for summer to be half way over before they even send it.

So there any kind of warranty?

Dangit! Now I'm going to need one of these! Can you get it without the peddle drive since I already have one?

Id really recommend trying to get someone who spearfishs to push it a little. Been fishing and spear fishing off a sup for 10/15 years, had a 52lb bass off one last year, much nicer than a kayak imo.

I live in Europe, what a bummer no shipping outside US

How easy is it to puncture with a hook?

Cool. Lend to Fisk, might catch another 500lb Marlin😂

only if it had support for putting a small e motor

Can you go in reverse with this drive?

its my razor sharp large circle hooks and treble hooks : oh and oyster beds that worry me about inflatables

Looks a lot slower per every leg stroke than the hobie itrek's.

Does lightning kayak have any original ideas?

$999 is still unobtainable for most folks. I got myself a packraft for $267 with a skeg and that thing is built for fisherman. I also have a paddleboard, a kayak, a jon boat so there is absolutely no need for this. Rather just add a packraft R/C powered trolling motor that can be put on a paddleboard and put on my packraft. Peddle drives are too much $$$ especially when you can get a trolling motor for much less.

😊 A cheap copy of Hobie i trek 9. Good job Good effort

For that amount just get a hobie.

If if we're 11ft maybe, 9ft too small

It looks awesome $1600 ? Yikes

40% off, what if I want a whole one? *Ba*dum*tiss*

Ill be honest the rudder doesnt look very sturdy

Is that 40% off of $1700? If not, the only price you'd be beating is Hobies overpriced inflatable kayaks. Most other comparable inflatable kayaks are actually less expensive than what you claimed to be your deeply discounted model of inflatable kayak.

Would never trust any inflatable with just one air chamber.
