Good product, but Amazon is ill-informed
By M. Archer
Great product, but........ The manufacturer actually sells this product in three different sizes and Amazon treats it as if there is only one. When you order it, you really don't know which one they will send you. It turned out OK for me because I was able to cut the one they sent down to the length I needed. If you aren't "handy" and they send the wrong one it looks pretty grim. Sending stuff back, trying to sort out the order to get the right one........blah, blah, blah. My recomendation is to order this particular item directly from the manufacturer or from Airkayaks.com

good addition to kayak
By Maureen E. Torrie
I bought the backbone after taking my AdvancedFrame Expidition kayak out 3 times without it. It definitely helps with efficiency of your boat. Without it, I noticed a lot of flexing over waves and with it I was able to cut through them more easily. Definitely a good purchase. Kind of annoying that it isn't just included with the kayak though...

Adds to assembly time, but improves tracking and speed
By Michael Ritger
It is a little tricky getting this in place and straight, but it does improve the feel and performance of the boat. BTW, do not buy this if you use your boat for whitewater, as the rigid bottom will increase the odds of a puncture upon impact with rocks. For open water, it's great.
