Osmosis is real. It happened to my Naish board a few years ago as i stupidly left it in bag with zips done up!. I sell gear and every customer i warn them about leaving a wet board in a zipped up bag. Yacht guys have talked about it for years . I have Pyro 93 and 83. Have also had a 87 for a full year with lots of use and sold it looking like new . As a matter of interest i believe the covid perod of 3 years has had some influence on the quality control of some of the gear coming out of the factories. There was definitely some poorer finished sups and wing boards with issues that were put down to staff levels / training/ quality control at the factories.

I'm thinking it's possible to make a board that's not affected with it. I have kept my Taboos in the very same way with no osmosis happening ever. In fact during the years of use 3 of my taboo boards have most of the paint intact, except some rock crawling... My Pyro in the other hand looks like it's been chewed by a pack of wild dogs just after a year. So naturally I assume it can be done better...

Well it's great to see my old thread back from the dead again, a year on.

Re-reading the comments has been fun, and of course the Pyro has won many events this season, and with many different weight sailors on this board.
Earlier this year Koster won the Chile IWT wave event on his Pyro, but of course he then got injured and only managed 5th at Pozo, when still sailing with an undiagnosed fractured foot. We wish him a fast recovery, and it's a shame he won't be at the Aloha Classic in two weeks time.

The smaller sizes of Pyro ARE available to order, despite what was said earlier in this thread, but of course you won't typically find the big sizes or the junior sizes of any wave board in stock at a shop.

Since this thread last surfaced, Severne have launched two more wave boards.

The 2024 Pyro has just been launched in the same sizes as before but with a new livery and a slightly tweaked construction.
The Severne Nano also lives on for at least another season.

I was out on my Pyro 93 board today, and I will probably never sell that board. I did put my knee through the deck at one stage in a crash but it was repaired professionally and is still as light as ever, two years on.

Got a Pyro 113. I am 6'4" and well over 100kg. In a nutshell for my size the board needs an active rider to get on the plane. Pushing a little bit down wind and pumping does help but once it lifts it accelerates like no other wave board I have ever owned. The top speed pretty much smokes every other wave or freewave board despite running it with a 4 fin setup. But what's really surprising is that despite the size and speed it turns like a small board.

I have now used it with sails right down to 4.2 and at no point did I feel like I needed a smaller board. Even overpowered the board still turned without complaints. Wide turn, tight turn... no problem.

I have tried the board with different fin setups: twin, thruster, single, Quad. Twin setup makes it super loose but it looses to much drive on the bottom turn for my taste. I tried the thruster setup with a number of different fin combinations but ultimately didn't feel it got going a lot earlier than using the quad fin setup that came with the board. Same for top speed. It was about the same. Going upwind was harder. I now just use it with the stock quad fins that came with board.

For me it's a great do it all wave board that has replaced both my Dyno 115 and Fanatic TriWave boards. Actually coming to think of it I would say it has a lot of the characteristics of the TriWave but in a more compact shape with higher top end speed.
