Sometimes a rigid kayak is made of a combination of these things, in which case they will be especially lightweight and durable. Because of the materials that they are made of rigid kayaks are generally pricier. There are many types of rigid kayaks and this is the most common type of kayak. Rigid kayaks can vary from beginner to advanced and be used for many different reasons.
Inflatable kayaks are made from PVC, hypalon, polyurethane, and neoprene. There are currently two primary construction methods for an inflatable boat: welded and glued seams. Inflatable kayaks are lightweight, compact for storage, and can be easily inflated and deflated.
