Crossover Kayak or Recreational Kayak
The Pyarnha Ion is a highly versatile recreational kayak that is available in two sizes. There is a Ion S / M and also an Ion M / L. With two sizes this gives a near perfect fit for the majority of kayakers. Crossover kayaks such as the Ion are great for first time paddlers. They offer you the opportunity to try many aspects of the sport before committing to a kayak that is only suitable for one area.
Pyranha have designed the Ion as a smaller brother to the more established option, the Fusion II Stout. The Pyranha Ion offers great potential for having a go at basic whitewater, kayak surfing, cruising along your local canal and even exploring the inlets and outlets of your local lake. The Ion is a modern boat, with a hull and deck designed to show that. The Ion has plenty of rocker, but with the addition of a rectractyable skeg it still offers good directional stability. This versatile crossover kayak has a large easy access cockpit, which is easy to get in and out. The seat unit is padded for good levels of comfort. Further comfort and support is achieved by the addtion of the adjustable kayak backrest and also the pedal footrests. The moulded in thigh braces offer the paddler good levels of control. They also offer the ability to learn and develop basic skills such as ferry gliding, support strokes and even an Eskimo Roll.
