Pyranha Kayaks Firecracker. Seams and boils?

Testing out the Pyranha Kayks Firecracker on some boily/confused water. Paddling down the Roy and Spean gorge, the perfect rivers to test how this boat reacts, on this style of water. Both of these rivers are very high in this video. Lots of water passing through these gorges causes massive boils, seams and rowdy rapids.

Paddling this boat through a high Roy gorge was manageable, but pretty sporty on the tail. If you know how to control and manage the tail then it can be very fun and exciting. Be prepared to paddle hard through the boils as the boat isn't the fastest when skipping through this kind of water.

Overall I feel that the firecracker handled really well. The only point I felt anxious was when scouting the big rapid. This boat is perfectly designed to handle and help paddlers to excel in this kind of water, especially at lower levels where it gets less pushy.

Having that stability of the hull to pass over seams and big rocker to skip over boils kept me smiling the whole way down. Then being able to pick out seams where I can dip that super playful tail and pirouette the whole way down the river 😮‍💨.

Can honestly say, this boat will help you to progress and keep a smile on your face the whole way down the river.
