Seth West from the Next Adventure Paddle Sports Center gives the rundown Pyranha's latest design - the Ozone. A downriver play kayak that's been providing us with a lot of fun on the river! nextadventure.net
Hi I'm 6.2 95 kg. Ive got back into paddling at 38 and will be practicing in flat water doing weekend whitewater and going to the beach for some surfing. Would the ozone be a good fit I only really want one boat for now. I don't mind sacrificing speed on flat water for having fun in anything thats down the river or trying some tricks on the lake. Also what size would you recommend for my weight. Thanks
Hey Daniel! The Large Ozone would be a good fit. It surfs really well on coastal waves and is super fun running downriver. Due to the slightly higher volume in the bow, it is a bit more difficult to bow stall in flatwater compared to similar boats, but it can certainly be done if that's what you're after. I think it would be a great boat for what you're wanting to do. I just picked up a Medium for myself after using our shop demo boat for the past year or so!
Hello ... Thanks for your Review, it seems that it is very good ... And I see that you speak in English, and I want to read the subtitles, but you have to configure the subtitles of your video, in the editing section you must put what it is in English language, since for some reason RU-vid recognizes it as Dutch, therefore the translation without correspondence. Thanks and keep making videos as good as these.
Hi. I am a man with 188cm (6.16ft), +-85kg (190lb) and shoe size 45 (11). So i am between M and L. Which Ozone would be perfect for me? We have no big water and no big waves here, so i will mostly paddle "flat water" with Old School Moves and will have some fun in eddy lines... With the M i´m near the max. weight limit and with L to much volume maybe, to bring the bow and stern under the water! Cartwheels impossible...?
Great question! You're a very similar build to me (6 ft, 185, size 11) - I'm paddling the Medium in this video. A friend of mine who weighs over 200 lbs took the Medium down one of our local class III runs and had a great lap with it. I don't think you would be uncomfortable in the Medium by any means, and based on what you want to do that sounds like the right move. If you WERE wanting to paddle bigger water, then the Large would make the most sense, but since you're looking to throw ends I'd go medium all day!
