The key words for the Nordr line are light, seagoing, fast, agile – achieved by a combination of moderate initial stability, but lots of secondary, and a slender, hull fine-tuned to soft, easy movements, providing a dry ride in waves, an impressive touring speed, and solid kayak control.
The hull is a bit rounded to combine speed and maneuverability. With inspiration from surfskis (the volume distribution) and their superior handling in waves, the Nordr is highly controllable, weather surfing waves in high speed, or negotiating rock gardens in low.
The Nordr M2 is an efficient touring double with lots of volume for gear and capacity for a good touring pace, even with inexperienced paddlers. Short enough to be reliably maneuverable in surf and waves, it has an balanced stability curve to instill confidence in beginners, but also appeal to experienced paddlers in wind and waves.”
