The Aerius 490 Quattro is the ultimate single-seater. It offers an enormous amount of space and leg room to accommodate paddlers of all size and weights.
Due to its 4 air sponsons, the Aerius 490 Quattro has a higher payload than other models and provides excellent directional stability in all waters, including the open sea. It is also very good for sailing, and we recommend the S1-Sail as a good fit.

The Aerius 545 Expedition is a very fast, safe and stable kayak that does not lose its composure even in rough seas. It is the ideal companion on longer tours, on larger rivers, lakes and seas.
With its spacious and open cockpit, it offers paddlers of all sizes and weights plenty of space and freedom of movement. It is also excellent for paddling alone (single rider position). Alternatively, the seat can also be used for a child or a dog and is thus suitable for up to three occupants. In this case, however, the front person should operate the foot steering system. Sailing is possible. We recommend S2-Sail.
