Three New Nelo Skis for Europe

560, 560 M ...
520 , thinking lower volume for beginner skis, so will there be 520M one day?

female paddlers, lighter males and the youth in the beginner/non pro levels ... are their numbers that small compared to 1,90m/100kg males semi pros and pros that volume diversity (two versions per model, lol) beginner boats is such an issue for the manufacturers? as a "V8L" in V8 pro thread

"OC: Yes, complete changes but still keeping the lookand feel of the Nelo brand. I would say they are more stable and have more comfortable buckets and footwells. I have kept the length which is a game changer."

some pics of the 560 M on montionspaddla (use google translate), here the width is given as 43cm, nelo website has it at 45cm

Has anyone taken delivery of their new Nelo yet?

Here on the West Coast of France, I should be receiving mine in couple of weeks.

Just for completeness (I did a quite thorough search for 560 info before I ordered one), a review from the UK:

And a nice review from Scandinavia on Facebook:

Ludovic, did you receive your boat already?

My NELO skis have been shipped, and should be in Brittany (France) any day now. I cannot even begin to tell you how anxious I am.

No worries.. here's the plan:
Receive - Photos - SHARING - Having fun - Testing - more photos - SHARING

Uffiliation and Merijn!

Thanks a lot for those links.

There is an especially interesting chart in the first review showing the effort vs speed on different skis.
