robmeister Topic Author Offline Platinum Member Posts: 531 Thank you received: 0	I ve watched a fair amount of kayaking movies and all, and it seems to me that you never see pyranhas going big. I dont have anything against pyrnaha, there kayaks seem good, but i dont think ive even seen one go even kinda big in a movie, there creekers, sure, but not playboats. Whats with that? Do they just ahave bad PR just not many people padlle htem.

juneyman Offline Premium Member Posts: 88 Thank you received: 0	The promo really isnt worth watching, and the video on playak, most of the boats who are "going big" (going better than me, but still not really all that good, if you ask me) arent pyranha. There is the one green and yellow one, but the rest are Riot and dagger. Not to say anything against Pyranha, I like their boats, just these clips arent proving anything.

Paddles4 Offline Senior Member Posts: 37 Thank you received: 0	i have an s:6 190 and i find that they dont get a lot of air unless i use an over thruster, when i put mine on i get some decent air usually 2-3 feet in a pool but without it i can bearly pull off a floop with all that said though get me a nice steep wave and they will bounce better than most boats

andrewwilliams530 Offline Senior Member Posts: 41 Thank you received: 0	I have an S6F and find i can get a fair bit of air, i think only becaus i am at the very bottom of the weight range. I found the S6F had a bit less volume than other playboats of a similar size.

Paddles4 Offline Senior Member Posts: 37 Thank you received: 0	the 4 twenty is a good boat but i still prefere the s:6 because its a good all rounder boat, it will play on pretty much any water feature easily where as the 4 twenty needs a bit of a push unless its a big hole
