The NELO 520 and NELO 560M just arrived in Brittany, France.
The NELO 560L should be here before the end of the month of June 2016.

You want to try one?
No problem, any time: just call or email me.

I'll be posting details, but in the meantime, here are couple of photos.
* The Yellow one is the 520 (5.2 meters long)
* The Blue one is the 560M (5.6 meters long)

Notice the paddler on the 520? That's like his 3rd time paddling a surfski EVER.

That's the 560M
(for smaller or lighter paddlers)

It's a total blast, it's fast, super fun, and as light as I like them to be.

Great shots Ludovic! Keep the reports coming. I've been paddling the new Nelo 560 in the SCS layup for over a month now and like you have found with the 560M and 520 it is fantastic!
The first container for the USA will be delivered to us here in South Carolina in early July. Can't wait to give the 560M and 520 a go.
So, if you're in the USA and want to give them a go or reserve one, get in touch with me; contact info is on our Eliteoceansports website.

Thanks Elite Ocean Sports, and glad that you enjoyed the photos.
There will soon be a “full review” of the Nelo 560M, but in the meantime, here are couple of quick snapshots of the Nelo 520 that went on a test this morning.

In his own words (complete with the French accent)
"un bateau vraiment facile" --- This boat is super easy.
"c'est cool... il glisse super bien" --- That’s so cool… this ski has a great glide.
Eric was stoked, but I was super happy to hear that.





Until then, enjoy the water any way you can. :)
