Constructions and graphics

Note: all NK skis are made with prepreg and autoclave technique, a process often used for the space industry and F1 cars(and NK surfskis), the high pressure(up to 4 x atmosphere pressure) and heat from the autoclave together with the pre-impregnated carbon fibers gives an unmatched lamination of composite creating an extraordinary light yet strong construction, not comparable with other techniques normally used for kayaks such as vacuum infusion or other hand lay-up processes.

CarbonX

Limited edition, extremely light yet rigid raw naked pre-preg carbon construction. Made with priority on weight.

Pre-preg uni-directional carbon construction with claer carbon twill cockpit, premium grade divinycell foam core, reinforced with stringer for increased stiffness and strength

CarbonLite R

Pre-preg uni-directional carbon with single skin hull construction to allow for more durability. Comes with kick-up rudder as an alternative rudder for shallow water paddling

K1 41 & K1 43– fast racing kayaks with hull shapes developed from our surf skis based on optimal hydrodynamics which together with our extremely light carbon fiber construction provides very easyle driven kayaks regardless of whether you choose 43 or 41 cm width. Of course, there is a little more top speed to pick out in K1 41 which aims to the elite marathon paddler while K1 43 is intended for an experienced exercise paddler. Both models are considered as stable for their width.
The seat is designed to provide a good support around the entire seat cup, this ensures you to sit more comfortably for a longer period of time compared with a typical K1 seat. The back end of the seat has a swept back design and enables good rotation and leg work. The seats are available in 2 heights depending on what you prefer. The footrest comes with pedals and a large base plate, together with our adjustable foot strap it gives the paddler a solid and stable footrest with a quick steering response.
