Pyranha Ripper 2 "Low Water Creeking"
www.pyranha.com/kayaks.php?ka...
Others have tried, but ultimately, only we could improve on the original Ripper...
The design improvements we've introduced in Ripper 2 take the fun to the next level and open up even more opportunities for it; go faster, surf more waves, drop the tail with less effort and in more locations, and get even more recklessly vertical.
Whether you were a fan of the original or not, you haven't truly experienced half slice until you've tried this.
Thanks for Watching!

Switched my seat to full forward for running/creeking since I picked up the SuperNova to focus on play...it really woke the R2L up for me - it made it so much snappier, balanced, and surfs way better. LOVING THIS BOAT!!!

[@WadeHarrison]

It’s my do all half slice

[@EricStegall78]

Great video and I love seeing the mini gorge broken down with some play in there too!

[@WadeHarrison]

Hey thanks for watching I have some bad lines coming soon

[@EricStegall78]

@@WadeHarrison that was me in the orange nirvana that got back flipped in Matt’s video. Got a little greedy and came in too tight trying to catch that top eddy at the crux lol Definitely bringing the 1/2 slice next time though

[@mtnmancam3626]

Great video! Looks like a blast of a run. You handled it awesome 👌

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah it’s a fun one

[@jamesdunn7526]

Sick video man. Can’t beat a half slice on a river like this. It’s like having boof assist 😂

[@WadeHarrison]

Yes so fun

"It's a bad undercut", " Don't get in it"😂

[@WadeHarrison]

😂 pretty simple huh

[@PALSRide]

It’s funny that you put this video out today I just got home from a -9 run on Wilson in the ripper 2 it did better than I would have guessed

[@WadeHarrison]

Awesome!

[@stuartreedsadventures]

Love it

[@WadeHarrison]

Was fun last release

[@CryptoSurfer]

Saw that from shore hand of God last night (Matt’s video). Thought it was pretty awesome. One of the cooler saves ever.

[@WadeHarrison]

😂 yeah I’m going to upload from my POV when get the chance

[@huntergipson3447]

@@WadeHarrison 😂😂😂 haha man I hate I missed out on paddling the WF with ya looks a little better from this video than some gnar I’ve seen 😂

[@WadeHarrison]

@@huntergipson3447 this was the last release of the year it’s not my favorite run but I always have fun there just because all the paddlers that go its a low water mank river but it’s really close to where I’m at so it’s easy for me to catch it and the lake that supplies it is a really good kayak fishing lake I hit that one a lot more then the river. The next release if you want to make the trip up hit me up and can show you all the best/cleanest lines out there..

@@WadeHarrison we will be back out end of Sept imagine for GAF family loves it around there ! You get around that way I’ll see ya there man 🤙🏼

Did you move the seat forward? I'd of had that thing slammed forward, LoL!

No It’s all in the factory position I just added hip pads to it in the parking lot and went

What paddle are you using?

It’s the Lettmann LCS extreme I did a review on it awhile back 👇👇👇 Lettmann Paddle "Walkthrough/On Water Review" kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5O7gICHqc6ri80

[@charleslegrand6017]

Can you give your thoughts on Ripper 2 vs Party Braap?

[@WadeHarrison]

Very different designs the ripper is more aggressive in every way the P braaap is a old school class in the making

[@charleslegrand6017]

@@WadeHarrison Thank you for the reply. I was thinking that even though they are so different in form with edges/planing hull vs rounded displacement, they might be more similar in practice. Interesting to hear they are actually very different. But, like you say, Party Braaap is an instant classic, so I'm leaning that way.

[@TNJedGT]

Dying to know - where is this?

[@WadeHarrison]

It’s called the west fork of the tuck it’s in North Carolina Usa it’s dam release and has few releases throughout the year this was the last one of 2022

[@ShaneKayaks]

This run needs about double the flow

[@WadeHarrison]

I never thought that? I talked to the Guy at Duke power and ask if he could drop it another 100cfs to make it channel better it seems way too high out there... LOL I'm joking of course, and I had a buddy that caught it on a weird off release at 650cfs which is more than double, and he said it was sick and felt just right. I would for sure be down for a big water WFT if we can time it. And I seriously did talk to the dam operator to get his contact info to give me the heads up when its open up and flooded...

[@ShaneKayaks]

@@WadeHarrison such a beautiful and fun run, but the mank gets frustrating on the inbetweens

[@WadeHarrison]

@@ShaneKayaks agree I actually said to the duke power I would rather loose some releases and add water to the others I don’t know why they only wanted 250cfs on that run it’s like 100cfs to low 300cfs should be the minimum 500cfs should be the max like they do like Tallulah have a low and high day makes total sense to me

[@michaelpelletier7117]

Looks fun..What run? Is there A river in the south that you don't know every line??

[@WadeHarrison]

Good question I actually remember the lines on rapids from rivers i been on one time I paddled years ago but than can’t remember where I left my keys 20 mins after I get home 😂

[@pop4725]

Dang looks like a long rock slide yikes 😳

[@WadeHarrison]

yup

[@patrickbusche5665]

Now the big question, do you miss the Ripper one??

[@WadeHarrison]

No I like this one better I still see a use for a ripper 1 but between this and the ripper EVO I don’t see it surviving very long

[@patrickbusche5665]

@@WadeHarrison but isnt the Ripper one a good riverrunner, even better than 9r2, why then the 9r2 still exists?

[@wenlambotomy6231]

Thats high water in UK 😂

Oh wow 😮

Always bring the stoke no matter the levels or class ratings!
