We wanted a packraft really pocketable. A ship that wouldn't sink as easily as the pocket battleship Admiral Graf Spee did in 1939 at Montevideo.

The Ultima Backpacker was born lightweight and extremely compact packraft, with which you can go on any of our traditional rivers up to the difficulty of about WW I. Not to mention lakes, ponds, sandpits and streams. A packraft that you roll up to the size of a Prazdroj and throw in a small pack with your beer.

In order to keep the weight as low as possible, the Backpacker open boat is equipped with a combination of TPU 210D floor and narrower 25cm TPU 210D tubes. The result is weight of 2,5 kg In order to keep the weight as low as possible, the Backpacker open boat is equipped with a combination of TPU 210D floor and narrower 25cm TPU 210D tubes. The result is lightweight boat (2,5 kg) with amazingpackability .

The boat is therefore slightly less resistant than its other siblings from the Ultima Packrafts stable, but it still managed without any problems, for example, the classic section of the Sázava Týnec - Pikovice under minimal water conditions, when part of the river literally shuffled along the bottom over rocks.

Thanks to the narrower stern cut, the Backpacker also has a slightly lower load capacity than our other packrafts (approx. 100 kg). It is also available in a version with the TIZIP system - even two zippers are used due to the boat's construction and are located in the side tubes of the boat.

Who is Backpacker for? The Backpacker is a packraft for those who are looking for a small lightweight boat that can still take them not only on calm water, but also on classic (not only) Czech rivers. For those who like to backpack with the boat and who like to go off the beaten track and reach the river in a few days. For those who disappear away from civilization where the world is still normal.

Who is Backpacker not for? It is not for packrafters who are going into heavier water and rapids. Nor is it for bikerrafters and heavy loaders, reindeer hunters and fur traders. If you are one of these people check out fellow Tramp, Cargo or Eddy kayaks.

And what do we say? We always take a backpacker when we want to go light for a day or more and we don't expect any major complications on the river. A backpacker is an open boat that is occasionally swamped by a wave from a weir or rapids. But we're happy to spill that - its weight and storage make up for it.

The freedom to wander through nature has never been closer.
