C1 8

Nelo C1 8

C1 paddling has a long tradition of technical challenge, apparently effortless movement, and harmonious strokes. The Nelo 8 is designed to match that desire for speed and glide — becoming a true extension of the paddler.

A more even volume distribution along the length of the hull creates balanced parallel lines, keeping movement fluid and direction stable. Increased rocker in the middle section reduces the canoe's wet surface during the acceleration phase, generating better lift on every stroke. Refined bow and stern geometry produces less turbulence, keeping the glide smooth and fluid whilst making directional corrections feel natural and intuitive.

With the addition of a new S size, the 8 is now available in five sizes — ensuring that more paddlers than ever can experience a hull designed to deliver maximum glide per stroke, with full comfort and stability throughout.
