Pyranha Storm Elite Kayak
NOTE: Shipping excluded, please see Boat Shipping info below.
The wider hull, evolved rail design, and a completely revised rocker profile create what might be the loosest half-slice design we have ever paddled. Incorporating lessons learnt from the ReactR, the Storm allows you to lock in directional control by engaging the rails on a wave, in a hole, or while paddling downstream, and spins like a hurricane to your delight when flat.
The Storm’s volume distribution is designed to keep the bow dry when paddling, but allow lightning-fast engagement and response with impressive pop for bigger air when throwing downriver moves.
A refined bow shape and a strong recurved rocker profile at the tail boost the speed of the Storm. The overall waterline has been developed to maintain that speed and lower the planning barrier, meaning surfing has less resistance on waves of all sizes and depths.
The Storm is a revolutionised half-slice design, available in three sizes, each offering unrestrained freeride potential.
Key Features
-
A freeride ½ slice, which is short and loose enough to maximise play potential.
-
The performance of this kayak is elevated by sidewalls and rails, which encourage you to get stuck into and play in new features while always being in control.
-
A contoured hull allows for better, faster transitions between those rails.
-
The large planing surface, with width maintained throughout the kayak’s length, and great release edges loosen up the hull and make the Storm come alive on a wave.
-
A well-balanced tail slices smoothly and has the width and volume to generate skips out of drops and remain on the surface when headed downstream.
-
The recurved stern lifts when planing to give a longer effective waterline than the kayak’s apparent length, especially satisfying when paddling downstream or surfing.
-
A balanced rocker profile helps the Storm maintain that speed.
-
The reduced bow volume can be engaged when playing, opening up loops and macho moves, but with plenty of lift from the bow rocker and efficiency in shedding water, it doesn’t load up when you don’t want it to.
-
The fun of this kayak isn’t just in the play, though; the Storm has some serious creekability, too. Three sizes mean most will have the option to size up or down to meet their preference.
