Yes sir all fits in the backpack, but know this. Repacking to get the kayak back into the backpack
takes practice. There are youtubes on how best to do this. I suggest watching, re-watching, trying, re-watching
then doing.
The structure is of two type of material. Hypalon bottom with is stout on its own, and the main body material which
is stout to hold the 10 PSI. It is plyable/foldable obviously but takes effort....e.g. don't be so gently on it to get it
to do what you want. Colder temp's make it harder.
I'll be curious to the up-charge the airline charges you.
Not too awfully long ago I flew two Feathercraft kayaks to Montana for paddling and it was only $50 ish per kayak.

Thanks for the info Robert. It's great that it all fits in the backpack, I'll need to check the pack dimensions to see if it still falls inside of the airline maximum checked bagage size limitations, if it does then the plan will be to pack it in a travel duffle and send it as regular checked baggage. I usually fly business class when I go over there and this particular airline has a very generous 2 piece checked baggage weight allotment of 50Kgs which is way more than I need even if I include the Kaya, the plan is to take it over there and leave it so I have it available when I go there on my summer visit. There is a river gorge near the village where I was born that I have always wanted to kayak so I'm really looking forward to the trip.

I was reading a number of reviews and the re-packing was a common complaint about the kayak so I guess practice will be required to figure it out over time.

Any idea why Manny Ortiz decided to switch Channels? To me it doesn't make sense.

seems like a silly move, however, considering he's already at 8K, he'll be fine.

If I still shot with a flappy mirror, the leaked specs of the D850 looks nice. 46mp, anywhere from 7-9 FPS, 50 shot buffer, XQD, improved touch screen, 2.36m rear screen, .75x OVF, etc. Probably close to $4,000 though. But my DSLR days are behind me, no more heavy 24-70 and bag to lug around. Looks like the ultimate DSLR and couldn't ask for much more, well maybe better video performance if we go based on Nikon's subpar video AF

The area is located in the extreme northeast coner of Portugal, in the photo Spain is on the left and Portugal on the right, the Douro river acts as the border in this area. The area is extremely dry in the summer months, it rains perhaps once all season and the yellow that you see is a type of grass that is very common in the area, it's actually quite tall, 4ft or so and it turns a beautiful share of gold in the summer and transforms the countryside into a sheet of golden yellow, especially at sunset.

The Opteka right? I ordered one off Amazon last night.
There was a discussion of purchasing morality/patents/small company survival at
FM over this lens and whether it was a legal or illegal knock-off. My
position is that no one appointed me purchasing policeman.
