    Good inflatables to heat stretch?

    So I've never done any heat stretching before, and have been looking for suitable inflatables for this.



    Was looking at those types, or at least the shape of them. Has anyone heat stretched anything like that, and how good were the results?

    Am looking for something that I can use to sit, bounce and ride.

    I have never tried heat stretching but would like to. The Intex Orca would be a good one. I am going to try my Bestway whale and see how it goes.

      my preferences for a heatstretch candidate are:
      - medium to large size
      - reasonably thick material
      - not too many complex shapes
      - preferably a large valve (Boston valve preferred)

        In my experience Intex Explorer boats hold up really well to heat stretching and are fairly easy to do. The larger boats have a decent sized valve that makes it pretty quick to inflate/deflate too.

          I like to call them Intex Expanders
