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 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.
Nordr S is a small and easily handled kayak for touring and play. The hull volume makes it suitable for lighter paddlers, whether novices or experienced.”
