INTRODUCTION
It is our goal, at Advanced Elements, to develop new and unique paddles-
ports products that enhance our customers’ outdoor experience. Our focus is
on designing and manufacturing “Inatable kayaks with cuing edge tech-
nology”. Our kayaks incorporate many dierent materials and components
and deliver high performance at a very reasonable price. We are the makers
of the AdvancedFrame™ Inatable kayaks, Lagoon™ Inatable kayaks and
StraitEdge™ Canoe and Kayaks. The AdvancedFrame™ Kayaks are a hy-
brid of a folding frame kayak and an inatable kayak. Its bow slices through
water like a knife and rivals the tracking of hard-shell kayaks. The stern acts
as a skeg increasing the tracking performance. The Lagoon™ kayaks are
durable and lightweight. They have built-in rigid forms that increase the
performance once it is fully inated. You can take our inatables with you
anywhere in the world and no roof rack is needed! Keep it in the trunk of
your car and paddle whenever you want or pack it into a remote wilderness
area and paddle where no one has paddled before. Simply inate with a foot
pump and hit the water in minutes. Please visit our website for more infor-
mation on our products or to nd a dealer near you.

Bow and Stern Design
The bow and stern have removable ribs of high grade aluminum. When the chambers are
inated these ribs press against the outer cover and form a high performance bow and stern.
3. ASSEMBLY/INFLATING/DEFLATION INSTRUCTION
The StraitEdge™ Kayak has a rigid frame in the bow and stern that enhances its performance.
3.1 Assembly
1. Insert aluminum Bow rib and the Stern rib into the webbing slots on the StraitEdge™
air bags and webbing slots on the kayak oor, at the bow and stern.
2. Aach air bags to the outer cover by tightening the “air bag compression straps” and
buckling the “air bag buckle”. Do this while the air bag is deated. These are preset
at the factory and may not require any adjustment.
3. Aach adjustable seat to the StraitEdge™ side tubes by fastening buckles.

3.2 Understanding Your Valves
Advanced Elements StraitEdge™ kayak uses the following valves. The Advanced Elements
spring valve has the function and durability of other military type valves and is compatible with
most standard pumps. The lock nut holds the valve in place with the cover for easy ination.
The following gures will have details on how to operate the valves.
To Inate: The valve’s plunger stem should be in the up/outward position ush with the valve
threading.
To Deate: The valve’s plunger stem should be set in the down/inward position recessed in the
valve threading.
In order to switch the valve from inate to deate or vice-versa, simply use your nger to
press the valve stem down/inward and rotate it a 1/4 turn to either lock it down for deate, or
unlock it (stem will spring up) for inate.
How the Spring Valve Works:
When the valve is in the inate (up/outward) position, the air being pumped in pushes the
spring-loaded plunger open, allowing air to enter the air chamber, but not leing it escape.
When the valve is in the deate (down/inward) position, the spring loaded plunger is wide open
allowing the air to come rushing out of the air chamber. If the valve is in the inate position, the
valve’s plunger stem will be ush with the rim of the valve. If the valve is in the deate position,
the valve’s plunger stem will be inside, or lower than, the rim of the valve. To change the valve
from the inate position to the deate position, simply use your nger to press the valve plunger
stem down/inward, and give it a 1/4 turn. This will lock the plunger open and allow the air to
rush out. Use the same procedure in reverse to unlock the valve plunger, allowing it to spring up
into the inate position.
Special Note: If you are using a 12v inator, like those that come with most inatable maresses
or those that plug into car cigaree lighters, you may need to have the valve in the deate (down/
inward) position because these types of pumps typically do not provide enough air pressure
to press the plunger open to allow air into the air chamber. Additionally, 12v inators do not
provide enough pressure to fully inate the kayak, so you will need a secondary pump to nish
the job.
Using the NEW “Screw-on” Spring Valve Adaptor:
The screw-on Spring Valve Adaptor was designed to enable the pump hose to securely connect to
the Advanced Elements Spring Valve without falling o during ination, making ination easier.
8
Page 9
StraitEdge2™ Inatable Kayak Owner’s Manual
The valve adaptor also has a semi-circle protrusion that depresses the valve stem, opening the
valve slightly to allow pumps with pressure gauges to take a constant reading. When inating
the kayak using the Spring Valve Adaptor, the valve should be in the inate position.
Special Note: The Spring Valve Adaptor comes with all current Advanced Elements pumps,
with the exception of the 12v inator, and will aach to any Advanced Elements pump that
does not have the adaptor already included, with the exception of the 12v inator. The Spring
Valve Adaptor will also aach to some other manufacturer’s pumps, but you must check the
aachment style at the end of the pump hose to be sure it will t.

3.3 Inating
IMPORTANT: Before inating, check to be sure that the kayak is completely assembled.
Inate your kayak in the following order. Failure to follow these instructions may cause
damage to your kayak. Do not over inate.
1. Locate chamber 1. Unscrew cap and check that plunger valve is in the inate position.
Inate Chamber 1 until rm to the touch (2.25 psi ONLY).
2. Proceed to chamber 2. Inate chamber 2 until StraitEdge™ tube is rm to touch (2.25 psi
ONLY). Close caps on chambers 1 and 2 tightly.
3. Locate chamber 3 “oor.” Make sure valve body is screwed in tightly. Remove small
cap (See Figure 2) and use appropriate pump nozzle. Inate chambers until rm (1.0 psi
ONLY). Do not over inate!
4. Locate Chambers 4 and 5. Inate Chambers 4 and 5 until rm (1.0 psi ONLY).
5. Make sure all valves are closed tightly and properly. Check to be sure the cap tether is
not interfering with the valve seating chamber 3.
3.4 Over Ination
CAUTION: Water temperature and weather will aect the air pressure of the kayak. In cold
weather and water your kayak will lose some pressure. If this occurs, you may want to add a
bit more air to the kayak to improve performance. In hot weather or prolonged sunlight, the air
inside the kayak will expand. You must let some air out of the appropriate chambers to prevent
the kayak from failing due to overpressure. You should avoid exposing your kayak to extreme
temperatures (hot or cold).

StraitEdge2™ Inatable Kayak Owner’s Manual
3.5 Deation
1. Remove the caps from chamber 1, 2, 4 and 5.
2. Push stems inward and rotate to deate position.
3. Unscrew valve body to chamber 3 (See Figure 2).
4. Once the chambers are deated you can use your pump to vacuum out any additional air to
improve folding.
3.6 Folding
NOTICE: Reverse your pump to completely deate all chambers.
1. Completely deate all air chambers and thoroughly dry the kayak and remove the seat.
2. Fold in half, down the center, lengthwise.
3. Fold into 4 equal sections.
4. Place into duel bag.

4. GUIDELINES FOR USAGE
Paddlesports can be very dangerous and physically demanding. The user of this product should
understand that participation in paddlesports may involve serious injury or death. Observe the
following safety standards whenever using this product. The user of this product acknowledges
both an understanding and an assumption of the risk involved in paddlesports.
Aer you have inated your kayak and before you put it in the water, inspect your equipment
for obvious signs of wear or failure. Review local rules and regulations and read again the
“CAUTION” statement.
Most areas have local laws and regulations about the use and equipment of small boats. Usually
a phone call to the local authorities will provide you with the needed information. Some areas
may require that you register and display a registration number on the front of your kayak.
Once you have been issued a number, it is best to ax it to the kayak by printing it on the
material with a permanent ink marker. If you are required to display a sticker or vinyl leers, an
inatable boat ID kit can be purchased at most marine stores.
Your kayak is designed to be paddled with a double bladed kayak paddle. Paddle with short
and even strokes. Keep the blade close to the kayak and the paddle almost vertical. Pull with
your lower hand and push with your upper hand. To reduce the amount of swaying at the
front of the kayak, ease o on the force of your stroke. Paddling with a backward stroke can
sometimes oer quick maneuverability.
ALWAYS practice safety and take the time to learn about the area where you are paddling. Get
ocial information about the local tides and currents before paddling there. Be careful that
you do not over estimate your strength, your endurance or your skill. Be careful never to under
estimate weather conditions. Be aware of the dangers before you begin. Be aware of your skill
level. Be sure you understand and accept the risk of these dangers. There are many paddling
clubs all over the world. These can be a great source of information on places to paddle, people
to paddle with and most importantly, continued safety practices.
4.1 To Use As Self-Bailing
The StraitEdge™ can be used as both a self-bailing and non self-bailing kayak. Most self-bailing
inatable kayaks are designed for paddling white water only. They typically have quite a bit of
rocker to allow quick turning and other maneuvers. By opening the drain ports you will allow
water or waves that spills into the kayak to drain out through the boom. In calm conditions or
on cold days you may wish to close the drain ports to prevent water from entering the kayak at
all. The StraitEdge™ incorporates the aluminum bow and stern frame to improve tracking in
open water conditions.
12
Page 13
StraitEdge2™ Inatable Kayak Owner’s Manual
To change to a self-bailing kayak, locate the self-bailing ports and remove the caps as shown
below.
5. PROPER CARE AND STORAGE
Your inatable kayak is made of very durable materials. However, like anything else, proper
use and care will increase the life of your kayak. Before storing your kayak, make sure it is both
CLEAN and DRY. You may clean your kayak with a mild soap and water. NEVER use strong
solvents to clean your kayak as they will destroy the material.
NEVER unzip the chamber cover when the kayak is inated.
Be sure to rinse your kayak with fresh water aer every use in salt water and allow it to dry
thoroughly before storing. Use a dry towel to wipe up all moisture. It should be deated and
kept out of direct sunlight when stored. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures (hot or cold).
If your boat is exposed to freezing temperatures while storing, allow it to warm up before
unfolding.
Do not store your kayak for an extended period of time while wet.
Follow these steps for removing excess water.
1. Unzip the 2 zippers that run down the sides of the kayak.
2. Use a sponge or towel and wipe up any excess water in the outer cover.
3. Wipe o the oor (top and boom)
4. If there is sand or gravel in the kayak, you can hose out the cover, and then wipe it
down with a towel.
5. Most of the time you can wipe out the inside of the kayak absorbing most of the water,
then pack it up.

6. REPAIRS
All kayaks come with a repair kit that includes glue and several patches. This should remain
with the kayak in the event that you may need it. If service is required for your kayak, please call
866-262-9076 for assistance.
6.1 Repairing Small Punctures and Cuts
1. Cut a rounded patch at least ¼” or ½” larger than the hole or cut.
2. Clean the area where the patch will be placed with water and/or mild soap.
3. Make sure all surfaces are dry.
4. In a well ventilated area, spread a thin layer of glue on both the patch and on the
damaged area. Let it sit for three to ve minutes or until tacky.
6.2 Repairing Pinholes
1. Inate the PVC tube. Locate the pinhole by sponging soapy water over the tube until
you see air bubbles. Mark the location of the pinhole.
2. Deate the tube and dry the aected area. Apply a drop of glue to the pinhole
3. Allow glue to dry completely.
4. Do not inate the kayak for at least twelve hours.
7. TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
Does not hold air
while inating.
The kayak is sagging
or under inated.
The kayak will not hold
full pressure for more
than a couple of hours.
Kayak still loses air.
The oor bladders are
losing air.
SOLUTION
The spring valve uses a plunger system. The only time the plunger
should be in the open position is when you are deating. Make sure
that the plunger is closed to inate. Push the plunger in and rotate
counter-clockwise.
Be sure that the right pump is being used. You need a bellows foot
pump or a double action hand pump. A 12-V electric does not supply
enough pressure to fully inate the kayak. The 12-V can be used to par-
tially inate the kayak but one of the other pumps is needed to top it o.
Make sure that the plunger is in the closed position. It should only
be open when deating. If it is open, the only seal is the black rubber
gasket inside the cap. Even then, a lile air may still leak out.
If you have checked all the previous possible reasons for the kayak los-
ing air, then there may be a pinhole or hole somewhere on the tube. Pull
tube from outer covers. Inate. If you cannot see or hear where a leak
may be, take a clean rag with soapy water and begin rubbing the tube.
If a hole is present, bubbles will continually form. Repair using repair
kit. If it is a very small pinhole, a dab of the glue may be sucient.
Check valve gaskets and make sure that the cap thether (ring that holds
the cap to the valve so as not to lose it) is not interfering with the seal.
The valves must be closed tightly.

Page 15
StraitEdge2™ Inatable Kayak Owner’s Manual
PROBLEM
Tube is kinked or bent.
The kayak is not self
bailing.
There is water in the
kayak.
The kayak dris to
one side.
The kayak does not
track well.
SOLUTION
The tube just needs to be adjusted. When kayak is fully deated try
adjusting the position of the tube inside of the outer shell.
The kayak is a self bailing kayak. There are four port holes under each
side of the kayak. The port holes have caps so it can be used as a self
bailing or a dry kayak. Make sure the caps are o.
There will almost always be a lile water in the kayak. One reason is
the water drips o of the paddle and into the kayak. The kayak is a self
bailing kayak. There are four port holes under each side of the kayak.
The port holes have caps so it can be used as a self bailing or a dry
kayak. Make sure the caps are on.
A kayak will always head in the direction of your last stroke. Make
sure to check that the air bags in the bow and stern are properly inated
and that the straps are pulled tight. If one of the oor bladders is not
completely inated, this will also cause the kayak to dri.
Try moving your seat forward a lile more. This will allow for beer
weight distribution and beer tracking.
