They look well made, but quite a lot of rocker.

The race version for Nordic Kayaks was in this video I shot yesterday on Sydney Harbour - there are several sections where you can see this ski in action - it has a bright green tip on it.

I have the Rapido 2.0, however I only paddled the Fenn XT, Epic V10L and the Honcho Guevara apart from this. Compared to the XT it is a bit less stable, but alot more fun and the seating is much better for me. I find it faster than the Honcho and initial stability is better. It was too long ago I paddled the V10L so I can't really do a fair comparison.

I hope to try the Swordfish this summer as that should be a similar ski.

The build feels better than the two mentioned above and I really like the bailer since water temperatures are rather cold here in Sweden (Right now it is ice) it is nice to close it on quiet days.
