Nordic Kayaks Exrcize: The Surfski That Works as Hard as You Do (Or as Easy — No Judgment)
Say hello to the Exrcize — the surfski that refuses to be put in a box. Whether you're a wide-eyed beginner still finding your sea legs, a seasoned downwinder chasing the next big run, or someone who just wants a cracking fitness session on the water, the Exrcize has got you covered. It's fast, it's fun, and it's genuinely versatile — the kind of ski that makes you want to get out on the water even when the alarm goes off at 6am.
Built on the same core principles as Nordic Kayaks' faster, higher-performance skis — just with a little less volume and a touch more keel — the Exrcize punches well above its weight class. It's approachable enough for beginners to actually enjoy themselves from day one, yet engaging enough to keep experienced paddlers coming back for more. Races, fitness sessions, easy tours, downwind runs — this ski handles the lot without breaking a sweat (that's your job).
The narrow cockpit cutouts allow for a tight, efficient paddle entry, meaning your technique can be every bit as sharp as on the narrower NK models. In other words, you won't have to compromise on form just because you're on a more stable platform. Efficiency and accessibility, living together in harmony.
Inside, the Exrcize comes fitted with Nordic Kayaks' latest cockpit setup: a seriously comfortable seat, an integrated bottle holder, and sleek carbon side handles that make carrying it to the water feel almost dignified. Want to extend your adventures beyond a quick sprint? Opt for the exposed carbon rear hatch for proper water-safe storage, plus front and rear transport mounts to make land handling a whole lot less awkward.
The Exrcize fits paddlers between approximately 160 cm and 200 cm (5'3" to 6'7") in height — so whether you're compact and nimble or built like a Viking, there's room for you.
