nah-12'6

Fitness or Long Distance, this is your weapon for winning on any course! 

 

 

With a super glide, our 12'6 COMP has been refined and developed by entering long distance races all around France. This gave us the opportunity to try and prove its efficiency in a very wide range of sea and wind conditions, where it always performed, even when facing boards up to 3 feet longer. 

 

Its size remains reasonable, and this is still an easy board to handle and carry for anyone looking for sensations and performance in their "fitness" practice, both on lakes and the sea. 

 

12'6" is the maximum length of the US "Stock Class", now adopted in the UK and soon to be in France, a class which has led some 300 competitors to enter races such as the « Battle Of The Paddle ». 

 

Its shape, incorporating a true "bow" followed by concaves, makes the Nah-Skwell 12'6'' a true fighter! 

Its curved scoop-line enhances the water-flow along the board while offering excellent gliding capability. 

The bow slices the chop. A polyvalent board, the Nah-Skwell "12'6 COMP" performs upwind, in side winds or down-wind. It can be surfed down the swell, while remaining manageable. 

 

Its equipment has got all our attention. We have designed a specific fin, both to help speed and cope with any sea-weed on the water. Inserts at the nose alllow to fix web-handles for more safety, simplify transport or get over the shore-break. The large foot-pad is comfortable and is only grooved along the length, not to affect blood circulation in the feet. An additional leash-plug, located between the rider's feet, allows fitting a short leash and prevents trailing the leash behind the board. 

There would be no excuse to jeopardize safety for the sake of performance! 

 

Shape characteristics: 

Gun type outline: optimised water-entry and limited windage. 

Curved scoop-line: maximises glide 

Rails: rounded in the lower section to enhance glide capability. 

Bow: slices through water and chop, brings further inertia to the board. Bottom: a double-concave from bow to tail enhances water-flow and glide. 

Deck: flat, maximising comfort and stability, as the rider has to move easily and fast on his board in order to adapt his board's balance to the swell and chop.
