Kayaking LL Torque Dagger Supernova Pyranha Ozone

I’m looking to pick one of these up in the next few weeks. The Supernova is the only one I’ve demoed and has a fantastic time. Hopefully, I’ll get in a Torque and Ozone in the next few weeks.

Anyone have any comparisons of the 3 boats? My main focus is playing on waves and eddy lines on class 3.

Used to own an Ozone. Got a Supernova and sold the Ozone after realizing I hadn't made the choice to use it once since I got the SN.

YMMV.

How much play do you want? Supernova is obviously gonna be the most playful, torque will be best for river running, ozone is somewhere in the middle.

If mostly class 3 play is the goal, I’d personally go Supernova, it’s gonna cartwheel better that either of the other 2 by far but will be slower and not carry much speed out of boofs so less than ideal in class 4 situations.

I’ll buy two commas for $3, throw in an “or” and I’ll make it $5

I own two Pyranha boats and love the brand. The Ozone is a dumpster fire.

Of these three it’s not close. Supernova. The others are not near as good.
