Most stable ProLine surfski
The Flow is the most stable surfski within the Nordic Kayaks ProLine series and is designed for paddlers seeking a particularly secure and calm ride without compromising on equipment quality. Many paddlers have asked for the popular Club 540 in a ProLine version, and the Flow delivers exactly that – a sub-10-kg entry-level model!
With a length of 540 cm and a width of 55 cm, the Flow offers high stability and very approachable handling. The proven Club 540 hull provides smooth glide characteristics and reliable control even in choppy conditions. At the same time, the Flow remains agile to surf everything from small to big ocean runs. It is an ideal surfski for beginners, progressing paddlers, or anyone who prefers relaxed and confidence-inspiring sessions on the water.
The Flow is equipped with a long-proven cockpit, known for its unmatched ergonomics, comfortable seat, quick-adjustable footrest, and compatibility with the new add-on carbon hood deflector (sold separately). It also features an integrated bottle holder, side carbon carry handles, and the latest deBrito/NK bailer.
The Flow suits paddlers from 160cm to approx. 200cm (5'3" - 6'6") in height and 55kg (121lbs) and up.
Also available in the more budget-friendly (CL) construction: NK Flow 540 CL
