Pyranha Scorch "Paddling the Mank"

[@rachelw117]

Thanks for showing us down and for always being stoked! I always learn something new when I paddle with you!

[@WadeHarrison]

Yes was really good day thanks for coming out...

[@RobBrown2288]

I was really psyched to see a tree boof!! Sweet toss on that recovered paddle

[@WadeHarrison]

Thanks buddy it was a fun day out there

[@AdamParkerFlapperz]

Another awesome video, that looked like so much fun. I'm impressed with how the Scorch handled those conditions.

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah this was the last true test I want you put it through and I feel it’s a well rounded boat but still it shines the beat in big flow

[@georgewilliamssr5230]

LOL, looks like you had a bit of an adventurous day with the crew.

[@WadeHarrison]

Always Adventurous in there

[@Bostardo]

Some nice editing mate on the intro hype, the ad break at 3:26 cracked me up

[@WadeHarrison]

Thanks buddy

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah I don’t choose the ads I have no idea what KZbin choose it’s different for every region what was it?

[@Bostardo]

@@WadeHarrison I just mean the timing of it was funny just as you landed was funny to me

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah I don’t know where they place them either I just let KZbin do it I can go in and adjust all that and some videos I do but mostly just let it go wherever

[@huntergipson3447]

Nice video Wade ! Just like most of our creeks we have around here ! There are a few with a lot more water - so having this boat, a half slice, then some type of full slice (been eyeing the Homeslice) would wrap it up for me. Thanks as usual for the video!

[@WadeHarrison]

Thanks hunter and I hopefully will have a home slice review coming soon I paddled it but was just briefly in eddy line

[@huntergipson3447]

@@WadeHarrison saving guys some grief and a lot of money/time ! Like Pete said in yalls video “Good enough to paddle for anyone, but chooses to paddle for himself” hell I got respect for anyone like that and appreciate the time you put in doing what you love 🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@allaboutthefishes]

Plenty of fallen timber and mank to negotiate on that one ! Scorch looked good - turns quick enough for the tight lines and stayed bow up in the drops. I like the look of it.

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah the rapids are not that difficult in there but all the sneaky trees makes it extremely dangerous in a few spots

[@smuir6104]

Record drought here in the mid-west, there aren't any runnable rivers within 4 + hours, so I am enjoying watching you run and hoping to get KZbin better! ha ha

[@WadeHarrison]

Thanks buddy for watching yeah lucky here in the southeast have a lot of dam releases this time year

[@climbiker]

When you can, try to put your camera in the support of the Stern, so you can see the Kayak better and how it behaves in the water, it is more interesting than seeing the tip of the Kayak all the time, thanks for the video you have shared .

[@WadeHarrison]

I will see what I can do its a lot more difficult to paddle with those mounts on there and I will; have to overlay the audio because you will not hear me from there

[@Harrison881]

“Nobody wants to play with me”. Lol I yell for “party waves” and the party wave isn’t a success unless we get a retentive high five!

[@WadeHarrison]

😂

[@pasqualecapodanno5037]

high flow, nice test

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah it’s a low flow run that’s for sure

[@daveshapiro764]

After you moved the seat forward from the first video.. Do you still feel that stern still catches like it had originally?

[@WadeHarrison]

I never moved the seat I just decided to tightened up Little better and kept paddling it in the center I got used to when to get weight forward to predict that stren edge load and just went with it I’m curious when the medium comes in how it’s going to paddle with my weight I was little light for the L

[@mikehunt4686]

Hey Wade great paddle as usual, was curious your thoughts the scorch vs 9r2?

[@WadeHarrison]

I liked the 9R2 this boat is a mix of 9R2

[@dylancarr1036]

Great video! Can’t wait till mine comes in. We’re close to the same weight. Do you think you’ll be better suited in the medium? That’s what I have on the way.

[@WadeHarrison]

Race and big water yes i would be fine in the L but all round boat I feel I would want to be little smaller I have not seen the medium yet so can not say how it fits but if it was me and the scorch M and scorch X would be a 1-2 combo that would be awesome

[@dylancarr1036]

@@WadeHarrison can’t wait for mine to get here. Looks like a sweet boat. This video answered my only concerns with the aggressive edges. Will it handle the SE Mank. Looks like you answered my question. Looks like it can handle the most extreme mank we have if it can handle WFT. Thanks again for the video.

[@WadeHarrison]

@@dylancarr1036 yeah I had several paddlers messaging asking how it handles on lower volume rivers and I wanted to try to answer that question and if you look the edges are sharp but what Pyranha did was lift them higher then the flat surface of the hull so the edges come in to play when you lean or are in bigger flows you actually don’t feel them catching a lot and I did note that I’m in the L the medium might be different because it will in theory float me lower in the water key me know when yours comes in I like to hear your opinion on what you think

[@dylancarr1036]

@@WadeHarrison I definitely will. Hopefully it will be here soon.

[@FeWolf]

someone is liking that boat

[@WadeHarrison]

It been a fun ride!

[@fritzrademacher]

10:21 I can't understand why people throw their paddle especially when it cost around 300 to 400 euro

[@elijahevans124]

Teeth are more expensive than paddles.

[@fritzrademacher]

@@elijahevans124 I don't understand your comment. What have teeth to do with throwing your paddle over a hanging tree?

[@WadeHarrison]

Thats so true Fritz 😂 also I twirl my cell phone sometimes and then I think this thing is 1000$ and I twirling it around like a idiot But yeah I will just toss paddled in slack moving water and usually nothing below but flat water thanks for watching that far in though 🤩

[@WadeHarrison]

@@elijahevans124 those are not cheap that’s for sure

[@WadeHarrison]

I think he was trying to say sometimes paddles hit low hanging trees and your face goes into the shaft and can break teeth I have actually seen this but in my case it’s mostly just playing around

[@paulbjork5976]

Superb

[@WadeHarrison]

Thanks buddy

[@MichaelChanslor]

If I am 165 lbs, you think I’d be okay in a large?

[@WadeHarrison]

It will be to big on you I’m 175-180 and I feel I’m on the bottom end my suggestion is hold out for the medium

[@artfisher1235]

Absolutely. Sure you can Scorch the Tuck. You can take a door off its hinges and take it down the Tuck if you edge it correctly every micro second. To each his own. Ramsey Prong at high water? Just give me the video rights on a Scorch lap and I could retire early.

[@WadeHarrison]

😎😎😎

[@ericdaffron1254]

West Fork handing out beatings to rusty boaters per usual. Been humbled down there myself. Scorch looks sweet. Nice low knee position?

[@WadeHarrison]

Yeah eric that’s how that one goes out there and yeah I have been humbled also so yeah I lm with you

[@mcMatej1]

Sweet

[@WadeHarrison]

Sweet as honey

[@frogyman1023]

Camping that's why I wasn't first

[@WadeHarrison]

That’s what I’m doing this weekend also

[@WadeHarrison]

@@frogyman1023 no not yet but I am wanting to do like a solo kayak camping video

Yes I agree ☝🏻 can get very dangerous in few spots
