Pyranha Helectron - key features
The Helectron is a "freestyle weapon" that inherits the proven strengths of the Helixir, but has been improved in stability, pop and agility. Development took 18 months and included five prototypes tested in waves and holes across Europe :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}. The new squared bow shape provides better control during plug-in manoeuvres and direct selection of rotations :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}. Increased volume in the stern (stern boosters) adds explosive pop for big tricks like the Lunar Orbit or Tricky Woo :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.
Hull, stability and handling
The Helectron has sharp primary rails inspired by the 2013 Helixir and a secondary edge that comes into play on a sharp lean - perfect for wave combos and inversion maneuvers :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}.
