Pyranha - Helectron - MD
Pyranha Kayaks are delighted to have partnered with GuiGui-Prod in order to do maximum, plastic-based justice to their next-generation freestyle design, the Helectron.
This absolute weapon of a freestyle kayak takes your breath away, even before you paddle it. The Helectron looks sharp; sleek; sexy; sporty. It practically begs you to get it on the water, whether that’s a man-made course, a natural river, a tidal surf spot, or even just a flatwater session.
The aim of the Helectron's development was to retain the tried, tested, and perfected features of GuiGui’s previous design, the Helixir, while improving upon the features which still had potential to be improved - a difficult brief, but after 5 prototypes, almost a year and a half of relentless development, and testing which took place on waves and in holes across Europe, the Helectron is here to put a fresh spark of energy in your freestyle game.
All in all, the Helectron is the next natural step in GuiGui-Prod’s hero journey to design and manufacture the best freestyle kayaking weapons on Earth, and will help you get more proactive in your freestyle kayaking and spend less time reacting, and more time acting.
