Squall

Swift & Steady Surfski for All Occasions
Introducing the Nordic Kayaks Squall, the go-to surfski for those who like their fitness with a dash of fun. It’s not just stable; it’s a blast! Zippy and exhilarating, the Squall shows off its prowess in the waves without compromising on speed—thanks to a nifty 49cm width. The clever cockpit cutout ensures your paddle slices close and clean, propelling you forward with gusto. Balancing stability with speed like a seasoned acrobat, this surfski makes re-entry a breeze, outshining its peers. Decked out with snazzy new features including a bottle holder, carbon side handles, and an ergonomically dreamy seat, it’s as practical as it is plush. Choose your fit: the Squall 580 boasts a spacious cockpit for the taller enthusiasts from 165cm / 5’5” to the towering 200cm / 6’6.7” and beyond. Prefer a more intimate paddling experience? The Squall 540’s shorter cockpit is perfect for paddlers from roughly 155cm / 5’1” to 195cm/6.4.6”. Ready to make a splash? Dive into the Squall!

AUTOCLAVE PREPREG TECHNOLOGY

All our crafts at NK are sculpted using prepreg carbon and autoclaved to perfection—a technique that’s as elite as it is intricate. Not many in the kayak realm have adopted this high-end method, known for its hefty price tag and complex execution.

Thanks to the uniform distribution of material in prepregs and the meticulously controlled high temperatures and pressures in the autoclave, our surfskis and kayaks boast unparalleled strength while maintaining a surprisingly light weight.

The layers in each boat are fused under intense conditions to create an exceptionally durable bond, ensuring our kayaks are not only reliable but also built to last. This cutting-edge technology is shared with industries where precision is paramount—like aerospace and Formula 1 racing. At NK, we bring this extraordinary engineering right to your boat.
