Elite surfski, as fast as it gets!
The Nitro is a top elite surfski designed for the elite paddler looking for maximum speed! In flat water this boat is as fast as a K1 (for many even faster), but on the sea and large lakes its where it excels. Great surfing properties in downwinders with an exceptional ability to connect and climb waves.
The combination of the volume distribution, the positioning of the cockpit and the distance to the rudder results in a very agile ski that can be mastered well even in breaking waves.
Since 2020 the Nitro has been manufactured with NK's latest cockpit with great freedom of movement and a very comfortable seat that has been developed during years of testing and feedback.
The Nitro 640 has a slightly wider seat and the cockpit fits paddlers from 165cm to approx. 200cm (5'5" - 6'6") and more, and 65kg and up (143lbs+). The cutouts on the sides are designed in such a way that it allows for a perfect tight paddle catch.
Also available in the more budget-friendly CarbonLite (CL) construction: NK Nitro 640 CX
Alternative size option: NK Nitro 625 CL / NK Nitro 625 CX
