Driftsun Rover 120 / 220 Inflatable Tandem White-Water Kayak Review

I had been wanting to get a whitewater kayak for some time, and when I saw the Driftsun Rover 120/220 Inflatable Tandem Whitewater Kayak with High Pressure Floor and EVA Padded Seats with High Back Support (according to the Amazon description), I was sold. It looked like it could handle any kind of rapids without compromising on safety or comfort. The fact that it came with an Action Cam mount so you can film your adventures made me even more excited about getting this kayak. Plus, all the other accessories (like aluminum paddles and pump) were included in the price. There were a lot of good reviews on Amazon for this one so I thought I’d give it a try and tell you about it. I plan on doing a comparison in the future comparing the Driftsun Rover 120/220 to the Explorer K2 Kayak and the AdvancedFrame Convertible Kayak.
