Description

The Prijon Beast, a new generation high-volume creeker with a lot of rocker in the bow, and a stern with an optimized current stall. The design of this kayak enables you to realize advanced manoeuvres, where you push the flat stern under water to raise the bow over waves and holes.

We combined an optimized volume distribution around the cockpit with a modern bottom hull to set a new benchmark regarding safety, stability and resurfacing.

Its 274 cm length gives a very fast planing hull ensuring high speed to safely shoot over retentive holes or to speed up in waves.

Medium-sized paddlers up to approx 80 kg can use it as full-featured creeker, while larger paddlers are able to paddle the Beast as a high-volume river runner.

The new PR-X foam seat system, combined with our indestructible blow-moulded HTP hull, results in an unbeatable, light concept design.

Standard outfitting includes drain bung, 5 aircraft-grade aluminium safety handles, adjustable aluminium bulkhead footrest, front/rear foam support pillars with bottom rail, superlight ergonomically-shaped PR-X foam seat, ratchet-adjusted padded backband, adjustable hip pads, fully-adjustable 3D thigh braces.

  • Length: 274 cm
  • Width: 68 cm
  • Volume: 360 litre
  • Cockpit: 86 x 53 cm
  • Weight: 22 kg (with the new PR-X outfitting)
  • Paddler: 60 – 120 kg

Ideal for extreme boating on Grade 5-6 rapids and steep creeks such as the Wairoa, Huka Falls (Waikato), upper Kakapotahi, Turnbull, Rangitata Gorge, Waikaia, Monkey Creek (Hollyford), etc. Also fun for ‘no stress’ boating on Grade 3-4 river runs.

Price is for the kayak only – you will also need a paddle, PFD and spraydeck.
The Mohaka and Ergonom Pro are good paddles for the Toro whitewater kayak.
The Nevis or Extrem are suitable PFDs.
The Rhino, Enduro and Strongdeck are all excellent neoprene decks.

Optional extras include a cockpit cover (for transport and storage).
