After my 3
month in Brazil. I went to Argentina to visit my family and friends and paddle
the local creek river that we have. Click here to see location -26.98297,-65.665627 (Sosa River). Because
I sold out my Everest before left Brazil I had to buy a new boat, so, I had the
chance to buy from my friend Edgar a Piranha Burn L pink and black color.
Let me tell
how my firth day was in Tucuman after 2 year since my last time over there.
When I arrived to the airport my friend Diego was there waiting. It was a
raining day. The fact is that after 5 minutes of chatting we decide not to say
anything to Family and friends that I arrived and instead we load the boats on
the car and head to the river. We paddled 2 very good section on Sosa River. It
was awesome day or welcome day!
The Burn
behaves very well on any type of creek, very easy to keep the nose up in any
situation. The high rockers forces you to be a bit more awake on keeping the
boat on the trajectory or balance. It is
also fast after landing, I mean, keeps the speed.
For the
foot brace I would cover it with a piece of foam because I find it a little
loose, it moves sideways. Also bolts
that hold the aluminum bar of the footrest get loose very often. A good
solution could be to glue the screws.
I would
like to remark about the plastic, let’s say after every crash or beat; any dent
will come back to normal shape. For me the quality is good and also has good
plastic memory.
In short,
is a reliable boat.
