The first kayaks were created thousands of years ago by arctic inhabitants now known as the Intuits. These early
indigenous people, formerly known as Eskimos, inhabited areas of Greenland, the northeastern point of Russia, Alaska, and the
uppermost regions of Canada. Early Eskimos made kayak frames using driftwood, and early kayaks were wrapped in sealskins.
Early kayaks were virtually unsinkable with air-filled seal bladders. These early kayaks were used during summer months
primarily for hunting and fishing. The word “kayak” literally means “hunters' boat.”
Early kayak design varied according to the specific needs of inhabitants of particular regions. For instance, early kayaks
designed by inhabitants surrounding the Bering Straight created wider, shorter kayaks. This kayak design provided a large area
for storing game and supplies, and it was more stable on rough water than the longer and more slender kayaks designed for
speed by the Aleuts.
Europeans eventually discovered the versatility of the kayak, and kayaks once designed with sealskins were designed by
Europeans with fabric covers. In 1905 a German inventor named Hans Klepper eventually purchased a design for a
folding canvas kayak from a German student. He called this kayak a "foldboat." Klepper began selling this early version of the
folding kayak, and kayaks once used primarily for navigation and hunts by indigenous people were now being used for sport.
Plastic kayaks were introduced in the 1980's, and kayaks continue to become lighter, sturdier, and more versatile. Now
there are several types of kayaks designed with various materials suitable for a variety of sporting events. Those who love the
sport of kayaking have more choices now than ever before.
