Ride higher and drier in rapids, scream into eddies faster than ever, and find your line without any limitations. The ReactR is Pyranha’s most innovative design yet, and opens new doors within the world of creek and river running for kayakers of all abilities.

In the design of the ReactR, Pyranha have spent significant time developing an entirely new style of hull, with a perfectly positioned pivot point and two planing surfaces, one in front and another behind, which the paddler can switch between with ease. This means the boat is stable both when landing a drop on the bow and when planing out of features on the tail. You want that skip, and 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!

ReactR: Explained David Bain walks through Pyranha’s most innovative creek boat since the 9R, the ReactR.

The ReactR hull has been perfected to enable direction changes when flat without tripping over the tail.

The “Pivot Hull Philosophy” 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, but enable rapid direction changes through low-angle pivot turns while 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 and allows you to make last second adjustments and carve into eddies.

The bow profile gives smoother water entry, a lifting point closer to the paddler for more horizontal skips, and allows 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 quick during boofs.

The dynamic bow captures the flow running over it and directs 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.

After over 40 years of research and development, award winning designs, world-class expeditions, supporting top class boaters and expanding to become Europe's leading specialist manufacturer of canoes and kayaks, Pyranha still design and build all their boats in Britain. Pyranha don't know where their kayaks will be paddled so they are all built to the same high standard – to be pushed to the limit by Pyranha's world class team of paddlers on the world's toughest rivers in the Himalayas, Rockies and Andes. We are still primarily run by kayakers and so are committed to being on the leading edge of kayak design and make constant improvements to our whole production process to support this. From kids to champions, Pyranha want everyone to enjoy the world's biggest water sport having as much fun out there as we do. Whether that's just ripping up your local play spot, exploring a remote creek or just messing about on the river. We always have and always will be by Enthusiasts, for Enthusiasts. Developing the most technologically advanced materials, using the industry leading processing methods and most detailed quality control systems means we can produce truly world class kayaks and reduce our impact on the environment. We compiled our history, photos and paddlers memories into a timeline for our 40th Birthday in 2011, view Pyranha's Timeline.
PLASTIC Making significant developments every year and working at the forefront of polymer technologies means that the most up to date polymer alloy is always used in the production of your kayak. The polymer alloy creates a balance between impact resistance, allowing bounce and shock absorbency and stiffness to create a safety cage around you and give the best hull performance. Additives are used to help knit these polymers together, give UV and weather protection, prevent colour fade and protect the plastic during processing and throughout the life of the kayak. This means that your Pyranha Kayak will stay stronger and looking good for longer. PROCESSING AND PRODUCTION Pyranha’s production facility including custom built more energy efficient ovens are the most advanced in the industry allowing them to truly get the best performance out of the plastics they use. First in the industry to develop the computer controlled molding process, Pyranha have continued to evolve the rotomoulding process since 1983. They have been producing variable thickness kayak shells for 26 years optimising performance and weight and maximising durability and safety. TESTING AND QUALITY CONTROL Keeping high standards of quality is a top priority at Pyranha and every effort is made to ensure each boat that leaves the factory is tough enough to be used in the harshest conditions. Since 1995 every plastic development and new colour has been independently tested for impact and toughness and the quality control process exists throughout the whole manufacturing process. ENVIRONMENT Pyranha have been industry leaders in energy efficiency for many years and their new factory has given a 25% reduction in gas usage due to the best heat retention systems and lowest energy utilization per kayak, making them the most progressive rotomoulders in the industry. They've been regranulating and recycling their waste polyethylene since the mid 90s - way before most companies even thought about their environmental impact. Pyranha recycle all waste polyethylene from both roto moulding and vacuum forming and also recycle all waste cardboard, paper and plastics. Pyranha actually use some of their seat and backrest supplier's foam waste from making 'body armour' (rugby and football) to package the ends of Pyranha kayaks. OUTFITTING The outfitting in your kayak is vital to your comfort, safety and overall performance on the water. Pyranha’s outfitting systems have been developed over the last 40+years and incorporate the adjustability and security you demand from a white water kayak. Their outfitting coupled with the variable thickness hull structure of the kayaks shell create a safety cage around you.
