9'6" x 35" - The Solstice Flare 1 is a high-performance, one-person inflatable kayak ready for flat or whitewater. Built with UV resistant, marine-grade PVC material and a high-pressure, drop-stitch floor, the Flare 1 has a capacity of 320 lbs. Integrated bow and stern spray covers with bungee-tie downs for storage. Kayak includes an adjustable & removable bucket seat and removable skeg for ultimate tracking.
I've paddled the Flare almost exclusively since 2017. In that time I've paddled 75+ streams across 2 continents, 20+ first descents and hundreds of miles from class I to class IV. It's flown across the Pacific twice, it's been on the back of a motorbike more times than I can count, it's been crammed in the back of a bus and it's been strapped to the side of an airplane. And through all that it has held up incredibly well, and it handles like a dream. It is small and nimble and does not handle like a standard ducky, but instead feels like a hardshell kayak. 10/10 would recommend.

Impressed with the quality
I bought the Solstice kayak last summer, 2020, after using a less durable model from Amazon. I was really impressed on the quality of the kayak and the speed that the pump can inflate the kayak. I found the seat very comfortable once you find the right position. Only issue is there is no brace or foot rest to stop you from sliding down but I found my own McGiverism for that for under $5.
