Red Shark Bikes Kayak Kit — Overview
The Red Shark Bikes Kayak Kit turns any Red Shark Bike Surf or Scooter Surf board into a full 2-seater inflatable kayak. Two padded seats and two paddles mount on the board in a few steps — perfect for tandem paddling, family use or relaxed exploration. The board is NOT included — this kit upgrades the board you already own.
The Kayak Kit fits into the Red Shark 6-in-1 modular concept: one board, many use cases. Explore the full Red Shark Bikes collection for the other kits.
2-Seater Tandem Kayak Conversion
The kit ships with two padded seats and two paddles — designed for tandem paddling so two riders can use the same inflatable platform.
Quick Installation
The seats mount onto the existing board mounting points; covers seal the bike / scooter holes. A few minutes per conversion, no permanent modification.
European Quality Build
Like the rest of the Red Shark range, the Kayak Kit is built in Spain to European quality standards — saltwater-resistant materials, durable paddle shafts and padded, comfortable seats.
Reversible Conversion
Back to bike or scooter mode in a few minutes — the conversion is fully reversible and doesn’t affect the board’s other modular uses.

Who is the 2-Seater Kayak Conversion Kit for?
The Kayak Kit serves a clearly defined audience:
- Bike Surf or Scooter Surf owners who want to add tandem kayaking to their existing modular board
- Families and couples who want a single platform that works for one rider (Bike / Scooter / SUP) and for two riders (Kayak / Tandem)
- Yacht and boat owners who want an inflatable, packable 2-seater kayak as a tender option
- Calm-water explorers who plan slow, low-effort excursions with a passenger
Solo paddlers who only want stand-up use are better served by the SUP Paddle Kit; riders who don’t own a Red Shark board yet should start with the Bike Surf Enjoy or the Scooter Surf.
FAQ — Installation, Compatibility & Tandem Use
Is the Bike Surf board included with the Kayak Kit?
No. The Kayak Kit is an upgrade kit — you reuse the inflatable board from your existing Bike Surf or Scooter Surf set. If you don’t own a Red Shark board yet, buy one of the complete sets first.
Which Red Shark boards is the Kayak Kit compatible with?
All Bike Surf variants (Enjoy, Fitness, Adventure) and the Scooter Surf. The kit uses the same modular mounting points on the board.
How many riders can use the Kayak Kit?
Up to two. The kit includes two padded seats and two paddles with leashes — ideal for tandem paddling.
How long does conversion take?
A few minutes per session. The seats mount onto the board, the hole covers seal the bike / scooter mounting points, and the kit is fully reversible.
Are the paddles single-sided (kayak-style) or double-sided (SUP-style)?
Kayak-style — double-bladed paddles designed for seated tandem paddling. For stand-up paddling with a single-blade SUP paddle, use the SUP Paddle Kit.
Can the Kayak Kit be used solo?
Yes — a solo paddler can use just one of the two seats. The board behaves like a wide, very stable single kayak in that case.
Can I use the Kayak Kit in salt water?
Yes. All components are saltwater-rated. Rinse with fresh water after each session and let everything dry before storage.
How do I transport and store the Kayak Kit?
The seats and paddles pack compactly and travel in the same transport bag as the rest of your Red Shark board. The whole tandem-kayak setup fits in a car boot.
Is the Kayak Kit suitable for kids?
Yes — the seated, low-centre-of-gravity setup is more beginner-friendly than the stand-up SUP option, and the second seat makes it easy for an adult to ride with a child.
Can I add other kits to the same board?
Yes — the Kayak Kit is part of the 6-in-1 platform: the same board also accepts the Bike Surf drive, the Scooter Kit, SUP Paddle Kit, Gym Kit and Tandem Kit.
How stable is the tandem kayak setup?
The wide inflatable drop-stitch board is significantly more stable than a traditional hard-shell tandem kayak — great for beginners, photo sessions or paddling with a child.
