Riot Bayside 10

A stable kayak with a spacious cockpit

The Riot Bayside 10 is a  feature-rich sit-inside kayak designed for recreational paddlers who value comfort, stability, and ease of use. Measuring 10ft/305 cm in length with a 30"/76 cm beam, the Bayside 10 strikes an ideal balance between manoeuvrability and tracking performance. Its flat multi-chine hull and pronounced V-shaped bow allow it to glide efficiently while remaining highly stable - perfect for navigating lakes, calm rivers, or sheltered coastal areas.

One of the standout elements of the Riot Bayside 10 is its oversized cockpit, which offers generous space for easy entry and exit. This design makes it especially accommodating for larger paddlers or those who prefer a more open feel while paddling. Inside the cockpit, the Flex 4 seating system provides exceptional comfort and customisation. With a padded mesh seat, under-thigh support, adjustable backrest (both in height and recline), and sliding foot braces, the seating setup ensures long-lasting ergonomic support for hours on the water.

The kayak also features thoughtful storage and convenience options. A rear tank well with bungee cords offers a secure spot to store gear like dry bags or small crates. Integrated gear track rails located in front of and behind the cockpit provide flexibility for mounting accessories like phone holders, navigation tools, or safety equipment without the need for drilling into the hull.

Weighing approximately 50lbs/22.6 kg, the Bayside 10 is easy to transport and launch, whether you're solo or paddling with a group. Moulded-in carry handles at the bow and stern add to the kayak’s portability. 

In summary, the Riot Bayside 10 is an excellent choice for those seeking a well-rounded recreational kayak that delivers on stability, comfort, and ease of access.
