If you love adventure or have long legs, the AdvancedFrame Expedition Elite is for you.
The AdvancedFrame Expedition Elite inflatable kayak has been specially designed for speed over long trips on flat or coastal water, including multi-day expeditions.
When you are miles from civilisation on your latest exploration, the Expedition Elite won’t let you down!
See below for some of the benefits that make this a great touring kayak:
Who is the AdvancedFrame Expedition Elite Kayak for?
Kayak campers / expeditioners who want to load up with gear
Tall people (6’2″ or above) who need some leg room
Casual paddlers who want speed AND comfort
Suitable for beginners
I have had the kayak out on beautiful Port Stephens waters a couple of times now and it is everything I hoped it would be.
Being a novice I find the craft to be very stable allowing me to concentrate on the correct paddling style.
The kayak fits my 6 foot 3 inch frame perfectly and its ease of setup and take down makes this a winner for my
needs.

Love to go Fast?
At nearly 4m long, the Expedition Elite is FAST.
The drop-stitch floor helps you glide smoothly through the water.
The patented AdvancedFrame design means no waggling when you paddle.
The built-in fin helps you paddle straight.
Huge Capacity for Kayak Expeditions
A whopping 204kg capacity means you can load this kayak up with gear for even the most extreme kayak expedition.
There are D-rings and bungee lacing on the large front deck for securing gear.
There is a roll-top hatch behind the seat for quick access to gear stored under the deck.
There are d-rings on the rear deck for even more gear!
Comfortable for Long Paddling Trips (and Long Legs)
Your back is supported by the inflatable lumbar so you are comfortable all day
Adjustable foot brace for comfort and to assist paddling technique
Plenty of leg room for tall people
The Advancedframe Expedition Elite kayak has a low centre of gravity and a flat hull. This gives you effortless stability so you can save your strength on those long trips.
This review from Geoff Wilson of 5th Element Expeditions shows just how tough the AdvancedFrame Expedition Elite is, even in the most rugged of terrain.
Multi-layer material design for protection of the inner tubes – there is very little risk of puncture.
Durable triple layer PVC tarpaulin hull also means you don’t have to worry about damage on rocks.
The dual main air chambers are great for safety, because if one chamber of the inner tube fails, the other will still function.
Portable and Convenient
Packs up into a bag (with backpack straps) about the size of a suitcase for easy storage and transport – planes, trains and automobiles, the world is your oyster!
Simple Set up
Comes pre-assembled – no need to set up, just inflate and go
The Advanced Elements spring valves allow large amounts of air to flow one way – quick and easy inflation and deflation

At Oz Inflatable Kayaks, we import the Advanced Elements range into Australia, which means nobody can sell it cheaper than we can!
If you see a great deal on an Advanced Elements kayak or SUP we are happy to match that price, and DELIGHTED to offer you a package deal on accessories as well.
Simply give us a call on 1800 996 495 or send an email with evidence of the better price to info@ozinflatablekayaks.com.au so we can do a deal for you.
The set-up video for the AdvancedFrame Expedition Elite is coming soon. In the meantime, here is Advanced Elements setting up the AdvancedFrame Expedition inflatable kayak, which is the same except for the floor.
It’s a big purchase when you don’t really know what you are getting, isn’t it?
To make this a no-brainer for you, I want you to try out the kayak or SUP, on the water.
That’s right – I want you to actually take it for a paddle.
If you don’t like it, you can send it back for a FULL REFUND.
Most retailers will let you return a product, but it has to be in new condition – what’s the point of that? You need to be able to paddle the thing before you really know if it is right for you!
So order the kayak or SUP, take it out for a paddle and then decide if you want to keep it. You’ve got a full 30 days from delivery to make that decision, so plenty of time to do a test paddle.
FREE SHIPPING!
Yes, that’s right, you get free shipping on this product, no matter where you live in Australia.
We use a range of couriers for shipping including Star Track Express, Couriers Please or Fastway.
They often want a signature on delivery, so have a think about whether someone will be at home (and you know Murphy’s law – if you pop out for 5 minutes, that’s when they will come!).
If it’s safe, the best option is to give Authority to Leave (ATL), which means the courier can leave it at your front door (or wherever you specify).
12-Month Manufacturer’s Warranty
Advanced Elements are pretty serious about quality.
They offer a 12 month warranty on all their products, and I can tell you with confidence that they are great about it. Although I don’t get many warranty claims, I have never had any issues getting help, parts or replacements from Advanced Elements.
