01 — HULL & PERFORMANCE

A super-loose hull built to throw down

The Helectron pairs a loose, planing hull with highly defined rails so you can spin and surf freely while still locking in clean edge control. A squared front edge gives unparalleled bite on the bow for initiating moves.

  • Super-loose planing hull for fast spins and freewheels
  • Highly defined rails for precise edge control
  • Squared front edge for control on the bow
Championship freestyle design, now in poly
02 — DESIGN & PEDIGREE

  • Tested on waves and holes throughout Europe

Got my wife's first kayak here and the guys were super helpful and friendly. Immediately welcoming and inviting — I can't wait to go back and browse their large inventory of kayaks and gear. Thank y'all for making our experience awesome!

So pleased with my Recon 120HD! Even though they're 2 hours away I had my kayak shipped to me. The packing was great and I received it undamaged. They were super helpful over the phone answering all my questions while I chose which kayak I wanted. Awesome company!

I bought my first kayak (I'm 61) thanks to Parker's education and patience. He spent two hours with me and even after the sale continued to patiently answer my many questions and offer advice. I was completely at ease and enjoyed the whole experience.

The Mecca of anything kayaking and kayak fishing! I ordered a new kayak from their website and they had it ready and waiting when I got there. Very friendly and helpful staff, and the largest inventory of kayak accessories anywhere around.

Bought a great Nova Craft canoe here — a 3–4 hour drive from home but well worth it. It took them about 5 minutes to load it and strap it on my car and I was gone.

You guys rock — super fast shipping and my kayak got to my doorstep without a scratch. It was definitely packed with care! I'm already recommending you to all my kayak friends.

Pyranha returns to freestyle with the Helectron, developed through a partnership with GuiGui-Prod — a team with a decorated international freestyle pedigree including multiple national and international titles and a World Championship. The Helectron builds on the proven foundation of GuiGui's previous design, the Helixir, while pushing every aspect that still had room to improve.

After 5 prototypes, nearly 18 months of relentless development, and testing on waves and in holes across Europe, the result is a boat designed to put a fresh spark of energy in your freestyle game. Available exclusively in polyethylene through Pyranha, the Helectron comes equipped with Pyranha's latest Elite outfitting and is built to help you spend less time reacting and more time acting.

  • Evolved from the Helixir — proven features refined through 5 prototypes and 18 months of development
  • Pyranha Elite outfitting — latest comfort and control package
