VALI AERO ULTRALIGHT Kayak
Less Weight. More Wild.
Meet the Vali Aero, our lightest inflatable kayak ever. Built for paddlers who want to go farther without the bulk, the weight, or the hassle. Whether you’re sneaking in a sunrise paddle or venturing deep into the wild, Vali makes it easy to grab your gear and hit the water fast. It’s freedom, packed tight.
A Closer Look at the Vali Aero
Vali isn’t your average inflatable. It’s an ultralight touring kayak made with premium AeroUltraX™ construction, featuring heat-welded TPU for next-level craftsmanship without unnecessary weight. The floor uses our ultralight drop-stitch tech to deliver stiffness where it counts, and the streamlined silhouette tracks fast and true, so you paddle more efficiently with less effort.
Available in three sizes, the 11' and 13' models are solo-ready, while the 15' is built for tandem sessions or loading up with extra gear. All three pack down into a travel-friendly backpack that doubles as a water-resistant storage bag. Toss it in the trunk or haul it on your back, either way, you’re ready to move.
Who It’s For
If your idea of a good time involves less struggle getting to the water and more time on it, the Vali Aero is for you. It’s made for weekend cruisers, backcountry explorers, and anyone who’s done hauling around heavy gear. No trade-offs. No shortcuts. Just smart design that keeps things light and keeps you moving.
Sizes That Fit Your Style
Whether you’re packing light for a solo mission or loading up for two, there’s a Vali built to match your style. All three sizes keep it ultralight and travel-friendly without compromising performance, because your kayak should fit your life, not the other way around.
