I have an i12 and I always struggle to get the kayak back into the bag--so much so that the bag is tearing at a couple places (only had it for 6 mos) and I dont see it lasting much longer because of my pulling and tugging and forcing it to get it in the bag.
Ive watched the vid-Ive used the pump to get all the air out-yet I still struggle to get it in the bag.

It seems it would be so much easier if there was a bigger bag for me to use. I dont care if theres slop leftover-I just want it protected in the bag when stored.

Is there a larger bag offered thu Hobie (like a tandem bag) or another type of bag to use for storage of the i12--- if so where do I find them and the cost?

Thanks in advance,
Kat

Sorry this reply comes so long after your post. If you are still looking, You may want to take a look at these bags by NRS:

This seems like the way to go. The NRS bags appear to have a much better build and will last a lot longer. I had a tear in the Hobie bag with minimal use as well. It's a real shame that the kayak is so great, but the carry bag is poorly made. Makes the experience a little less enjoyable knowing I needed to go and spend an extra $150 for something that should have been included with kayak.
