Hiko Fitflex Light: A lightweight hiking raincoat for the whole family

Hiko Fitflex Light: The ideal choice for beginners and children

The biggest obstacle for beginner kayakers is often the fear that if their boat capsizes (if they can’t perform an Eskimo roll), they won’t be able to pull down the spray deck. The Fitflex Light model elegantly solves this problem. It combines lightweight material with a thin rubber rim, which ensures that the spray deck reliably prevents water from entering, but can be easily released from the collar when needed—simply by pressing your knees against the bottom.

Lightweight nylon fabric and a well-designed drawstring

The design of this spray deck is focused on maximum user comfort, flexibility, and light weight:

  • Nylon with a PU coating: The spray deck is made of 100% nylon with a high-quality PU (polyurethane) laminate and coating. With a weight of just 190 g/m², it is extremely lightweight, flexible, and easy to pack.
  • Tightening behind the body: Attaching it to the boat’s coaming is a breeze. It’s secured by a thin elastic cord housed in a nylon tube, which can be easily tightened behind the body. Thanks to this, the spraydeck fits perfectly on all types of coamings.
  • Adjustable chimney with suspenders: You can easily cinch the nylon hood at the waist as needed. The elastic, adjustable shoulder straps ensure that the hood stays in place even during intense paddling.
  • Large pull-through loop: There is a clearly visible and easily felt loop at the front for a classic and safe exit from the kayak.

What is the spray mat suitable for?

Thanks to its affordability and excellent value for the price, the Hiko Fitflex Light is great for:

  • Water tourism and recreational boating: It protects against occasional ripples, rain, and water splashed up by the paddle on calmer rivers and lakes.
  • Basics of Competitive Canoeing and Children's Clubs: It helps relieve stress for children and juniors who are just learning to paddle in a closed kayak.
  • Easy sea kayaking: A lightweight nylon neck gaiter helps reduce excessive sweating during longer hikes along the coast.

Expert Advice and Product Care: The ability to kick off the spraydeck with your knees is a huge safety advantage for children and complete beginners. We recommend practicing this “emergency” method of exiting the kayak several times in calm conditions in shallow water before heading out on a real paddle. The 190 g/m² nylon fabric requires special care due to its PU coating—after paddling, rinse the spray deck to remove any dirt and always dry it by hanging it loosely in partial shade. Avoid drying it rapidly in direct sunlight or on a radiator so that the coating retains its flexibility and longevity.
