Take it to the next level with the all new AdvancedFrame Convertible Elite! A fifteen foot (457 cm) kayak that can be paddled solo or tandem. The Convertible Elite combines our aluminum rib-frame technology in the bow and stern, and rigid Drop-stitch technology in the floor, to provide paddling performance that rivals that of a hard-shell kayak. The versatile open deck design can be converted to a closed deck kayak in a matter of seconds by simply zipping in the optional single or double deck conversions and the upgraded lumbar seats provide comfort for hours of paddling! There’s plenty of storage space on board for long trips. It sets up in just a few minutes and is compact enough to take along on a weekend adventure.
AE1007-E-P: EUR 1349 (MSRP) => Our price includes service (see commercial policy) : EUR 1069 (with gratis pump – valued at EUR 49)
Elite = Drop-stitch floor construction + Adjustable seat with inflatable lumbar support + Duffel Bag with removable shoulder straps
Attach either optional Conversion Decks to make your AdvancedFrame® Convertible a closed deck solo or tandem kayak in a matter of seconds! The Single Deck sports a series of d-rings with bungee deck lacing, arched deck riser aluminum stays, and a rear cargo hatch while the Double Deck has d-rings and a mesh pocket for enhanced gear storage.
- Multi-layer Construction : Unlike many inflatable kayaks, in which the side wall of the main chamber is in-fact the inflation chamber itself, our kayaks are developed with multiple layers of material for maximum durability. The main inflation chambers are encased in their own outer tube cover and, in many of our models, the encased inflation chambers are then protected by the outer shell of the kayak body offering the best in protection against the elements
- Multiple Air Chambers : Our unique air chamber design provides optimum safety while out on the water. We divide the main inflation chamber into two separate air chambers that encompass the entire kayak so that, if one chamber were to become compromised, the kayak has a second chamber fully encompassing the boat

Important note
It is not easy to choose the right kayak for your activities! I am here for you. You will read on almost every website that these are the best kayaks with excellent gliding ability on the water. This is not true! Even in the Advanced Elements brand, the Lagoon1 does not have the same characteristics as the AFrame Elite.
All our kayaks have been disassembled and tested by me. I know the technical characteristics, advantages and disadvantages of each model. Do not hesitate to ask me your questions before buying your kayak. My goal is your satisfaction. And if I don’t have the right model for you, I will tell you directly.
Have fun on the water,
Frederic

Na uitgebreid vergelijken en lezen van ervaringen ben ik uitgekomen bij de Advanced Elements Convertible. Deze kajak voldoet volledig aan mijn verwachtingen: mooi afgewerkt, comfortabel en fijn om mee te varen. Inmiddels heb ik er al aardig wat kilometers mee gemaakt en de tevredenheid is alleen maar gegroeid. Daarnaast verliep het hele aankoopproces uitstekend dankzij de betrouwbare en snelle service. Kortom: zowel het product als de service krijgen van mij een dikke aanrader.
Uitstekende persoonlijke afhandeling van de bestelling. Keurig een mail met advies op basis van ervaring met de kayak.
I purchased the entry-level AE kayak through bol.com. The package arrived very quickly, and I also received a personal email with lots of useful advice. It is very clear that AE Agency is an outstanding shop that genuinely cares about the customer experience. Excellent service from start to finish! We’ll be testing the kayak this weekend in Monthermé 🙂
J'habite loin de la Belgique et je tiens à souligner le professionnalisme et la réactivité de Frédéric pour l'achat d'un kayak Édition limitée Elite : il a assuré du début à la fin. Pour ce qui est du kayak, un vrai bonheur : facile à monter, stable sur l'eau et rapide. En revanche, attention, il n'est pas très grand. Je mesure 1,73 m et c'est limite. En tout cas, vous pouvez acheter en ligne en passant par Frédéric, il assure vraiment. Manuel
We zochten accesoires voor onze Advanced Element convertible elite en kwamen op dit adres. De bestelling werd razendsnel geleverd: besteld(in Nederland) en de volgende dag al in huis! Keurig verpakt, en prima afgehandeld. Later nog een vraag per E-Mail gesteld en binnen een half uur een prima reactie en antwoord. Zeer tevreden.
J'ai enfin trouvé en Europe des pièces de rechange pour mon *vieux* kayak Advanced Elements, acheté d'occasion il y a plusieurs années, et toujours fringuant sur les eaux du Golfe du Morbihan. Suivi et échanges de qualité.
Exceptionnel du début à la fin. Un service sérieux, rapide associé à un super suivi. Kayak livré en 3 jours, avec en plus de précieux conseils. Le TOP. Merci Frédéric
Sans doute des mains maladroites qui ont sélectionné une étoile pour le service client de Frédéric. Le mal est réparé car 5 étoiles est une manière de définir un service qu’on ne trouve pas ailleurs. De plus le contact est d’emblée basé sur une confiance et un respect mutuels.
Frédéric has helped me from the beginning till the end through the whole buying process for the purchase of an AE convertible AE1007DS kayak with the right support on the right moment. You receive a correct advice depending on your personal preference and situation. You get the possibility for testing out a kayak to give you the touch and feel needed to make the right decision while buying a kayak. Even after the purchase if you still have questions, he gives you tips and insights to help you further. Much appreciated! The first trips on the water with the convertible are very positive and with the tips I have got, it was even better. It is a nice quality product I would recommend without a doubt!
I contacted Frederic about buying a kayak. He was very responsive and flexible. Didn't push me at all and wanted to be sure I'd be happy before buying. Made sure I could set it up and break it down before selling to me. Great service and I love the kayak!!
