The Rio 120 is made from Carbonlite and has a 24 inch beam, with a snug cockpit and thigh braces that give smaller paddlers real control for edging. The Infinity seat and ergonomic foot braces adjust the fit. Dual sealed bulkheads and two 10 inch hatches provide dry storage and flotation for lakes, inshore water and Class I to II rivers.

Good to know
- The cockpit is sized for small paddlers, so check the 31.8 by 15.5 inch opening against your build before ordering.
- Retractable carry handles help with solo loading, but use padded roof blocks or a cradle so the hull is supported on the drive.
KayakDIY take: A kayak that actually fits a smaller paddler makes a big difference in control and comfort. For more options, browse all my kayak reviews.
