As previous LE officers, we didn't take our time off lightly. So when we hit the Colorado trails & had to spend over 30 minutes airing down just to get on the trails, we knew the weekend would be a struggle. Though the joys of trail riding outweighed the pain of the traditional Air-Up /Air-Down process, our patience was definitely wearing thin.

So after successfully making it back from the trails, we decided to hit the lake for some kayaking. To our utter disappointment, we had to yet again spend 30+ minutes airing up each kayak individually to ensure we were not overfilling. BOOM! this is where we put our feet down and said no-more! Thor's Lightning was born.
