  • Best overall of all my Hard Shell Kayaks I've owned
Color: Breeze Blue
I've owned well over a dozen (maybe 2 dozen) kayaks over the last 20+ years of Kayaking. From 17ft sea kayaks, to sit on tops and even some high end inflatables. Although I still have a sea kayak, sit on top, and Inflatable, this WS Aspire 105 has become my favorite, most used all around Kayak. I purchased this in Spring of 2023 but waited until now (late fall 2023) to give my review after several dozen outings with her. I live in the Midwest so my sea kayak is really overkill for me unless I'm on Lake Michigan, which is only a couple times a season. I wanted a lighter weight, more stable, carefree kayak for my everyday local kayaking. I first tried the new Pungo 120 and after half a dozen outings I sold it. For me the Pungo did not track/glide well for me. Many correction strokes were required especially when paddling at a leisurely pace. The V bottom of the Pungo was not like my Sea kayaks V bottoms I've owned. It did not add to the tracking or glide, it just made it rock from side to side especially when coasting. I have retractable skegs on my sea kayaks and I always prefer that feature over a rudder in my longer boats, and wished the Pungo had one. I decided to try the Aspire 105 mainly because of the skeg feature. WOW, what a difference. Even though this Aspire is not even 11 feet long, It tracks/glides as well as, and in some cases even better than, some of my past sea kayaks with the skeg down! The stability is as stable as my sit on top kayak (also a WS), I can actually stand while getting in and out of it from a launching pier. The kayak weight is relatively light compared to other kayaks I've owned, and the Aspire is well balanced for carrying on your shoulder for short portages. I always loved WS kayaks because the seat is so comfortable, the Aspire seat included. I love the large cockpit opening and the integrated small dash area (I hated and never used the Pungo removable dashboard). I also purchased the full splash skirt with full zipper, extending kayak season for when it gets colder out, keeping the warmth inside the cockpit (and also cold water drips). I have had this kayak on larger lakes with 2 to 3 foot chop and in windy conditions and the stability and tracking is incredible to me, it handles like a much longer boat. Is the Aspire as fast as sea kayaks, No, but I'm not competing or trying to break any records, I kayak for enjoyment, relaxation, and exercise. It's also not the slowest kayak I've ever had either, with the tracking so outstanding, I believe its as fast if not faster than the Pungo which gets high overall reviews. For those who may be wondering, I did contact WS about my Pungo before I sold it and sent then many photos of the hull, body, etc...thinking there may be a manufacturing issue causing my poor experience with it. They were willing to send another copy of the Pungo if they could see any signs of a defect, but there was none. I then decided to sell it, but I did not lose any $$ because I got it on sale and when I sold it it was still in like new condition and the price went up. I've always loved WS kayaks, and the Aspire 105 has become my favorite current all around use kayak. ... show more

  • Great kayak
Color: Mango
The skeg is great for windy days as it was windy the first day I had it on the water…it stayed straight and tracked well in the water…the seat is very comfortable, and didn’t take long for me to figure out because I’m a man and I don’t read directions…the water bottle mesh pocket on the seat in between your legs is awesome…the hill is sealed by the manufacturer so you don’t have to…the paddle straps in front are great to quickly slide the paddle into and snap pics…the foot pedals have an extended hand adjustment lever to easily adjust them…no more footsies with the old way of unlocking with your toes…high end knee pads…this is my first kayak I ever owned…I’ve borrowed a lot, but this one by far surpasses all of those kayaks…I almost bought the pelican pioneer xr 100…this is a great kayak…built well, has a lot of the options needed for a comfortable and relaxing kayak ride…we even got to see an eagle on our trip… Warning: the delivery service is terrible and I took 5 weeks to get my kayak…do some research as you can travel a few hours to get your kayak from a store than wait 5 weeks with a bunch of 5th grade excuses…they sent me the wrong kayak the 3rd try…and then lied and said they couldn’t deliver it on the 4th try because it showed up late…it was a lie because I was on vacation and had to change the delivery date to the next week and it was showing that it was delivered to the warehouse an hour away that Tuesday…really unprofessional and uncaring delivery service…but that’s not the kayaks fault…wilderness systems customer support is like the government…they could care less what happens to you…I was brushed off and hung up on…my suggestion would be to buy it at a retail store and drive the extra mileage instead of waiting for the children left behind to deliver your kayak… This is a really sturdy and well manufactured kayak…you can tell someone who’s struggled with limitations on a kayak helped design this kayak… a mid level recreational kayak that has more than what you need for a nice paddle on flat lakes and rivers ... show more

  • Love it!
Color: Breeze Blue
Lightweight for easy loading and unloading. Convenient storage, very comfortable seat, easy to adjust, absolutely no complaints. The skeg helps steering a lot.

  • Received kayak in PERFECT condition on time. Kayak itself is 10/10
Color: Galaxy
One of the best all purpose recreational kayaks out there, period. This is a well built kayak that feels a decent bit lighter than the equivalent weight Perception Joyride at 50lbs that I checked out at a store, even though this has a much nicer well designed metal frames seat, a skeg, much more load capacity and a skid plate!!! I can carry it with one hand (5-10 160 lbs male) holding the side edge near the seat for 50-100 feet, but recommend a kayak cart for longer distances. The rear bulkhead was actually well sealed (which was a huge plus, the description on WS says its merely got foam floation blocks - this must have a been a late additional model year upgrade in July 2022 when my Kayak was built). The Seat is so good NO other non-WS kayak has anything like it, its much better than the seats in even the expensive Eddyline kayaks. The galaxy color is different Vs the photo on WS and amazon (no black in it but dark blue), but still excellent (see my photo). Delivery was on time per the Amazon estimated delivery window, driver called me 10 mins away. Kayak had cardboard below and was wrapped in plastic - all in all it was LIGHTLY packaged which made for easy disposal but risked being damaged. Fortunately the kayak was perfect. The only negative was the deliver driver and his assistant didnt wait while I inspected the kayak, they said it would be in good condition and dropped it off and drove away, lol. If the kayak was damaged given they didnt let me inspect it I would have rated the delivery much lower. ... show more
