Bigfoot Hunters: Adhoc folding canoe that fits in a backpack
When you're squatching in the middle of nowhere, and you need to get somewhere quick, it's easier to just canoe your way around the harsh terrain of the Pacific North West. Check out this canoe that fits in your backpack!
From Gizmodo:
Ori Levin designed a full sized canoe that's completely collapsable and can be stored in a bag that's only 5 x 9 x 28 inches big. Basically, you can have a boat in your backpack.
Called the Adhoc Canoe, it only weighs 9 pounds and takes 5 minutes to assemble. The frame of the canoe is made with carbon fiber and the hull is made of aramid (a synthetic fabric used in racing sails). The boat comes together in a "double wishbone-like structure" formed using telescopic poles. Probably not comfy but certainly clever. Sadly, Levin has no plans to bring the Adhoc Canoe to the mass market.
