The Prijon Rizz - a little
beast? Not at all, the Prijon lab has been working hard on a new design!
In terms of size, the Rizz has more volume in the tail, but its basic design is still a modern quarter-slice – meaning the tail tapers in the rear quarter. A modified edge line and a slightly narrower cut make edging a breeze, and the more pronounced rocker line lets you accelerate quickly and fly over return passes.
Have you seen the Wave Deflector yet? It's almost as good as the Prijon Anti Splash ( ;-) ) and lets you glide over the wave trains without getting wet.
Of course, we asked
Andi Brunner (170 cm, 65 kg) again what he thought of the Rizz:
The Prijon RIZZ is an incredibly lively and fast kayak that I personally find a lot of fun! At 65 kg, it's a perfect fit for trips within my comfort zone. The kayak is very maneuverable, fast, and boofs beautifully thanks to its ample rocker in the bow and stern. The inverse rocker allows it to skip out of drops incredibly quickly. It paddles very intuitively and requires minimal effort. It's less suitable for very challenging whitewater with my weight, as the low-volume bow and stern shape tends to sink more easily in powerful waves. However, this very shape is what makes it so agile and playful. My girlfriend loves the Rizz and has a blast with it on Class II-III whitewater. Overall, the RIZZ is a perfect beginner creek boat and a fantastic fun machine for more advanced paddlers.
