Got ppl sell this in Malaysia yet? Looks really interesting!

Looking to find out if there are people here in Malaysia into the sport of Packrafting?

Its a relatively new sport in the world but it truly caters to those adventurous at heart or simply want a weekend of adventure in the water.

What is a packraft?
Packraft and trail boat are colloquial terms for a small, portable inflatable boat designed for use in all bodies of water, including technical whitewater and ocean bays and fjords. A packraft is designed to be light enough to be carried for extended distances. How light can it be? A packraft can weigh as little as 2kg and when folded it is the size of a kitchen towel roll. The contruction of packrafts are what sets it aside from conventional inflatable boats. Packrafts are made up of 210 Denier Nylon at least with some going as high as 800D nylon and Kevlar reinforced floors. Why this is attractive is because  packraft can be packed into your backpack and brought anywhere. Whats more, the raft itself can handle your weight as well as your bicycle on top of it to cross bodies or water.



Any enthusiats here do drop a message. I'm current using one for rivers and seas that can take rapids up to CLASS II.

Hey fellow packrafter.

R-Deck would be with the splash skirt?

If you're KL based I can only suggest the lakes around KL or some rivers in KKB. (Alor Lempah is the tail end of the KKB river rafting so its mostly a chill paddle down river or upriver) I took my Rogue to Semenyih but I was told illegal to paddle out in the dam so was only out there for a while but it was an awesome paddle in a giant body of fresh water.
Other than that Putrajaya lake where they offer canoes, you can inflate and paddle there.
I think there are a few more spots for wake boarding in KL Selangor area but I haven't tried.
There are a few lakes in Setia Alam / Shah Alam that part of a hiking trail.
Some of the packrafters that are more advance I know here have even tried up north in Sungkai

I think one issue is where doing this is permissible in KL side.

I had no problems in the sea here or Sabah but that's when you're on longer vacation. Sungai Tembeling in Taman Negara would be another great spot but 3.5 hours away.
