Pyranha ReactR

The all new Pyranha ReactR! Ride higher and drier in rapids, scream into eddies faster than ever, and find your line without any limitations. The Pyranha ReactR is the most innovative design yet! Opening new doors within the world of creek and river running for kayakers of all abilities. In the design of the ReactR, Pyranha Kayaks have spent significant time developing an entirely new style of hull. Featuring a perfectly positioned pivot point and two planing surfaces - one in front and another behind. This allows the paddler to switch between both points with ease. Meaning the boat is stable both when landing a drop on the bow and also when planing out of features on the tail. If you're looking for a kayak that skips, Pyranha have delivered! This isn't just a kayak - it's a statement about Pyranha's commitment to leading the charge and progressing the sport through design innovation. The ReactR's development tore up the rulebook on creek boat design and rewrote it - embrace the new era of whitewater kayaking! Pyranha ReactR Key Features The ReactR hull has been perfected to enable direction changes when flat. Without tripping over the tail. The “Pivot Hull” allows the paddler to take complete control of the boat's direction, at any speed. The ReactR's tail design has been honed to stay on top of the water when heading downstream. Whilst enabling rapid direction changes through low-angle pivot turns. Keeping your weight over the front and your forward momentum strong. An innovative rocker profile takes sidewall pressure away from the ends of the boat. Allowing you to make last second adjustments and carve into eddies. The bow profile gives smoother water entry. Providing a lifting point closer to the paddler for more horizontal skips. Also allowing cross currents to pass under the boat without knocking you off your line. The ReactR's hull efficiently glides out of features and retains upstream speed in ferries and attainments. Yet still gets out of your way quickly during boofs. The dynamic bow captures the flow running over it. Directing it under the boat for increased speed and optimal planing performance. Pyranha's new, Elite outfitting system has been redesigned from the hull up to give you optimal control of the ReactR's progressive hull design.
