Welcome to a detailed look
A comprehensive review of a technical touring kayak for open water paddling, by Kajaktiv.
The Prijon CURVE 2.5 PRO is a fast, dynamic and agile whitewater kayak for paddlers between 60 and 85kgs. If you want to cruise and play down the river, or paddle sportive on the line then this Riverrunner is your kayak! It boofs easily, surfs everything and ferries smoothly. Doesn’t matter if you want to paddle big water or low volume creeks – this kayaks handles everything. And last but not least: it is BIG FUN!
Its light weight and the compact measurements simplify its handling. The cockpit rim is extended towards the back, which improves the mobility of the paddler. The broad bent-up tip provides safety, its pronounced edges high initial stability and maximum agility. The CURVE 2.5 PRO is equipped with an aluminum bulkhead footrest, an ergonomically optimized seat-system with ratchets and foam pillars as a standard feature.

The PRO-fitting provides an excellent contact to the boat. Every move of the paddler is directly transferred to the boat. This leads to more agility and a far better control over the kayak while demanding athletic use. The bottom rail in combination with sturdy and lightweight foam domes in the front and back provides the already very durable HTP-shell with even more rigidity. Additional stability is offered by the ergonomically-shaped PRO seat which is connected with the floor rail in a shape-locking manner. The seat padding can be individually adjusted with the supplied foam pads with regard to width and height. The lightweight back-belt offers a very good hold and is easy to adjust, thanks to the new mounting. With the new PRO features the Prijon whitewater kayaks are significantly lighter and stiffer.
