Updates on Fluid Kayaks @ WakaWai

Our demo's are on the way and should be here by the weeks end! Here is an update on the 2 new models to be here in the States soon...

The long awaited Small and Large versions of the Nemesis is now in production. The Nemesis is a high performance playboat, and the Medium version has already proven to be an exceptional design. It is extremely loose on a wave, carves really well when put on edge, and releases very well for huge air. On top of that, the volume distribution is perfect for all hole moves. Fluid considers it the most complete playboat on the market now.

The Small Nemesis has been designed specifically with girls in mind. It will fit smaller guys too, of course.

The Large Nemesis, like all their large boats, was designed for real big boys. Although a bit narrower and shorter than the L Flirt, which has become the playboat of choice for many big paddlers, they managed to create even more leg and foot room in the L Nemesis than in the L Flirt.

Check out the specs and pics below of these two new boats, together with the specs of the M Nemesis for comparison. The boats are already available in South Africa. The first batches will arrive in Europe and North America during the second half of July.

 
The rows are boat length, boat width, volume, boat weight, and paddler weight.

Women's Freestyle @ Teva Mountain Games

Here are a few shots from some of the women's rides. Women paddlers are Nikki Kelly, Tanya Faux, and Emily Jackson. Don't be fooled, they rip just as hard as the men... just with more finesse.
