Description
Nelo K1 5 ST Racing Kayak
This boat is the sit-on-top version of the K1 racing kayaks, designed specifically for marathon races. This version—the ST—combines the performance of a sprint kayak with the versatility and safety of sit-on-top kayaks. It is currently available in Vanquish Cinco sizes M, L, and XXL. During the development of the seat area, the manufacturer focused on a comfortable design that allows for quick drainage of water from the kayak, even in case of capsizing, by lifting the boat. This feature is particularly beneficial for minimizing time loss during marathon races. Designed for long distances, the weight of the kayak is a critical factor, which is why the ST is only available in AIR and WWR constructions. The AIR construction is ultralight and specifically developed for surfski models, capable of achieving high performance in all conditions, while the WWR (carbon/Kevlar) construction is designed for river, marathon, and sea racing, offering both rigidity and durability. The boat is distinguished by its light gray matte finish. Although it is a sit-on-top model, the ST can be equipped with all the accessories of traditional kayaks, including adjustable seats and footrests (standard with a pedal footrest). This means you can use the same accessories as with any K1 model. Additionally, accessories specifically designed for this model will be available to further enhance the kayak's functionality for optimal performance.
