Tramper S

Want to stay on course and paddle with minimal effort? My core feature is the innovative wave-piercing air floor. The center floor bulge extends to the front and rear, providing directional stability that you won't find in any other compact inflatable kayak.

My sleek wavepiercing bow doesn’t just look good: when you position the seat forward, the bow tip dips slightly into the water, extending my waterline to my full length of 340 cm. This reduces drag and lets you achieve roughly 15% higher average speeds compared to conventional compact inflatables, whose upturned bows create a larger bow wave and noticeably more resistance. With steady paddling, I accelerate effortlessly to 6 - 8 km/h — perfect for lakes and gentle river sections.

For tight turns in lively water, simply move the seat backward. This lifts my bow, shortens my waterline, and makes me more responsive. It’s the optimal setup for small rivers and choppier conditions where quick direction changes matter.

My tall backrest includes an integrated, rigid support plate. It provides solid stability and relieves pressure on your back so you can paddle comfortably. Thanks to the slightly raised, padded seat, you stay dry at all times. And my foot brace gives your feet secure support, keeping you from sliding forward. 

Want to be safe on the water? With my 82 cm width and 20 cm tube diameter, I am very stable on the water. Even if you shift your weight to the side, I remain calm, steady, and predictable.
With a 120 kg load capacity, I carry you and your gear with complete reliability.

Want to take everything you need with you? My all-round multifunctional line gives you support and keeps your gear secure. Use it to fasten dry bags, waterproof bags, or barrels. I carry about 37 liters of storage in the stern and roughly 20 liters in the bow - plenty of space for everything you need on a day trip. And when you’re in the water, you can hold on to me — I’m there when you need me. 

However, the multifunctional line is not intended for carrying the boat—I have separate carrying handles at the bow and stern for that purpose

Want to stay dry? My spray cover keeps you protected. Splash water from the double paddle won't hit your thighs, and rain won’t soak your boat. There’s a handy mesh pocket in front of the cockpit for a water bottle or small items – always within reach.

Built-in crossbars keep the deck tight so water runs off easily. The water-resistant material dries quickly, letting you pack it away right after paddling.

I handle rivers with light splashes with ease. Challenging whitewater is left to my siblings HYPE and ESCAPE 1, both with fully enclosed, completely waterproof decks.

The spray cover is attached to my multifunctional line with hooks—no Velcro fasteners, no wear and tear.

A two-piece aluminum ring forms my coaming and keeps the spray deck firmly in shape.

Want full control in every situation? I'm ready for a steering device—my stern comes with standard fittings that you can easily plug it into.

With it, I can reliably stay on course even in crosswinds or currents.

When launching and landing in shallow water, simply flip up my rudder blade. And if we ever touch the bottom in a river, it lifts automatically – without getting stuck.

Want to glide effortlessly? You can mount a small electric motor on my stern – the motor bracket simply plugs in where the steering device would go.

You steer as usual with the foot pedals, and control speed comfortably with a wrist-mounted remote. In the standard setting, you quietly cruise at around 4 km/h for about four hours.

If you also paddle, both speed and range increase – perfect for longer trips, or for days when you just want to enjoy the view without much effort. Simply glide along and experience the freedom on the water.

I’m not made from ordinary PVC – my hull is crafted from premium rubber, made in Germany. In Austria, I’m transformed by traditional handcraft into a finished boat. This creates value in both countries while supporting local jobs and regional economies. 

My I-beam construction with floor bulges has been proven over decades. I don't need drop stitch—there is no delamination with me. I can be inflated quickly, reaching the proven hard Grabner air pressure with minimal effort.

I gently cushion even hard impacts with the ground – and if damage does occur, I can be repaired easily and reliably without having to dispose of the entire boat.

Every seam is permanently bonded through hot vulcanization - no comparison to PVC bonds, which can come apart with heat or aging.

My outer skin made of EPDM rubber is UV-stable and particularly abrasion-resistant, and my natural rubber inner coating reliably keeps the air in. I remain dimensionally stable where other boats sag.

I’m free from PVC, carcinogenic plasticizers, and PFAS substances like Teflon – safe for you and better for the environment. 

Thanks to my high-quality, durable construction, I maintain my value and even after years retain a strong resale price. 

I’m built to last for decades, not just a few seasons.
