The weapon of choice for many of the World's greatest paddlers, the Burn just got better!

Subtle performance enhancing modifications make the 2010 Burn exactly what you need for having pinpoint accuracy and boofing down rivers like a Pro. Whether you're eddy hopping down remote gorges in distant locations or just want to Burn down your local run, there's more than one reason why this design is established as THE benchmark creek kayak.

Front Rocker:
Raised and re-profiled giving more control for boofs and drops without loosing speed. It's still aggressive and it's still fun!

More V:
The front deck sheds water better, gives improved directional control and the tweaked rear deck V gives paddlers more predictability over drops or in holes

Carving Rails
For precision and predictability for must make eddies and for snappy turns

Paddler Clearance:
Knee area and cockpit slightly lowered to improve paddler to kayak contact, reaching for strokes and to make rolling easier

New Rail:
The hull features a new rail that is also slightly raised further up the boat to make sure it does not get hung up when you run shallower sides and when edging over rocks. This new rail still carves with a sweet precision so you can snap in to micro eddy�s or just cruise in to the big ones as you wish.

Rescue Points:
Re-profiled to speed up attachments in rescue situations.

Recessed Drain Bung:
Nothing that sticks out means nothing to catch and break!

Speed:
This boat is still seriously quick!

This kayak has vastly improved my kayaking and has given me more confidence on higher grade rivers.
The problems with this kayak are all superficial and none of them interfere with the joy that you experience when paddling it.

About Me
I have been kayaking for about two years, and am comfortable on grade four water.
I am 170cm tall and weigh 75kg with a 31" waist and size 10 & 1/2 feet.
Pros / The Good
Boofing Machine, this kayak loves to Boof.
Secondary Stability, this boat has tonnes of it and makes last minute high braces very easy.
Acceleration, this kayak gets up to speed quickly, perfect for smashing through holes.
Spins, the rocker on this boat means that it turns very easily.
Enjoys a surf, the combination of carving rails and planing hull means that this boat loves to surf
Comfortable, once you manage to get the outfitting right this kayak is very comfortable due to the fact that the outfitting is very adustable.
Comes back up the right way, i have been submerged in this boat so many times and have never come up upside down.
Looks good, i know this is objective but i think that this is a sexy boat.
Makes you look good, this kayak really makes you look like you know what you are doing.
Cons / The Bad
Adjusting the outfitting was a bit of a mission to say the least.
The sticky stuff that is on the foam parts of the outfitting loses its stick when it gets wet, not much use.
Pyranha seen to have decided that the best thing to line the cockpit with is razor blades, meaning that carrying this 20 kilo chunk around on your shoulders is a painful experience. I actually have bruises on my shoulders from carrying this kayak.

After paddling the new 2010 burn i feel much more confident in running more drops as im confident that i will get my line.
It feels great in the water, I think this is because the boat is so well ballenced.
