- First ever launch of a Hobie Outback kayak using the Freedom Launcher landing gear equipped with beach tires. How did it go? You be the judge. I'm very happy with how the trial turned out.
These wheels are now an optional upgrade for Freedom Launcher® landing gear orders.

Once you enter the boat, the wheels are going to sink into the bottom, which for very soft bottoms could be a problem? Solutions that occur to me: the wheels rotate forward first to push off, the continue rotating to back; wheels the can rotate in either direction; wheels that can be raised as well as rotated.
Great idea!! This location was rocky and one side got hung up on a small boulder. The nice thing is that once you are floating, rotating the leg moves the kayak and allows the leg to lift up and out of the way. So far, I haven't launched in mucky conditions... I'm not looking forward to that opportunity!!
