Absolutely perfect!
“The price was the same as if I had bought directly from the company, plus I saved the importation fees. So you are much better off buying from Ottawa Valley Air Paddle. And the kayak is amazing, it takes 2 minutes to assemble and disassemble, and it is lighter and much faster than my former inflatable one.”

The entire experience was fabulous from start to finish
“We are so impressed with Ottawa Valley Air Paddle. This is our second Bay St. We ordered the first one directly from ORU. This time we saved on shipping from the US and the price of the kayak was significantly less than Amazon. The entire experience was fabulous from start to finish. High recommend working with Scott and Lana. They are knowledgable, seem to genuinely care about the customers, and offer service that is exceptional.”

Our super sturdy ABS plastic footrest is easy to adjust — unlike many kayaks, you can fine tune it while sitting in the boat.
Adjustable backrest
A fully adjustable backrest provides support for paddlers of all sizes. Feeling lazy in the middle of a paddle? Just tilt it back using the side straps.
Fairing
These ultra-durable, riveted polyethylene sleeves help streamline the origami kayak, and protect the ends from scratches and scrapes.
Customer Reviews
Just purchased the Oru Inlet and I'm really happy with it. It arrived less than 3 days after I placed my order online and I assembled/disassembled it in my living-room right away after watching the video and found it to be easy to do both (I am over 65). My first paddle was on a beautiful day on Lake Superior and it did not disappoint. What a great addition to my beach days! Customer Service has been awesome when I had a question. I would recommend this kayak for any beginner wanting to enjoy the waters.
At OVAC Arnprior Paddlefest this summer, I got to try lots of boats. I also tried assembling and folding up the various Oru boats. Although I like the Oru Bay, I felt it was a little too heavy for me. The Oru Inlet was the best fit for price, size, weight and assembly time. The staff at OVAC were very helpful. Paddlefest gave me the opportunity to try before I bought which is a great way to feel secure in your purchase decision. Paddlefest was a great event on a beautiful day.
Unique design and extremely light. Perfect for storing in small spaces. I have used it twice and still getting used to the set up and break down. The instructions are excellent and my five year old grandkids helped with both set up and break down. The kayak is very stable, comfortable with the add of a gel seat and moves quickly through the water.
I tried this kayak with Scott’s help before buying..The kayak serves our family’s need as beginners. It’s very easy to set up, great space saver, very stable and easy to handle. The service OVAP provides is excellent as usual. Happy to share that I am a returned customer to purchase this model again; now each family member has our own Oru Inlet!
We recently bought two Oru Inlet kayaks and love them. The quality surpassed our expectations. We highly recommend Oru kayaks, Scott’s service (OVAP) was excellent and we are so impressed with the overall quality and compactness of these amazingly engineered kayaks!
