Nordic Kayaks Storm: For When You're Ready to Mean Business
The Storm doesn't mess around. This is an advanced surfski built for paddlers who've put in the hours, dialed in their technique, and are ready to unleash themselves on the water without holding back. Sharing the same DNA as the legendary NK Nitro models — but with just a touch more stability — the Storm is for those who want to paddle hard, surf hard, and not have to think twice about staying upright while doing it.
In experienced hands, this ski is a pure surfing machine. The kind where you can lock in, dig deep, and focus entirely on driving the paddle — safe in the knowledge that the Storm is right there with you, stable, responsive, and ready for whatever the ocean decides to throw at you. Waves? Brilliant. Flat water racing? Equally at home. The Storm is genuinely fast and competitive across conditions, making it as at home on race day as it is during a serious fitness session when you just need to suffer productively.
Versatile, responsive, and built to perform — the Storm is the ski that grows with you and keeps pushing you further.
It comes in two sizes to make sure the fit is as dialed as the ride:
The all new Storm 615 has the long cockpit and fits paddlers from approximately 165 cm to 200 cm (5'5" to 6'7") and beyond. The Storm 570 has a cockpit that's 5 cm (2") shorter and suits paddlers from approximately 155 cm to 195 cm (5'1" to 6'5").
The new Storm 610 shares the same updates as our Nitros.
- Higher rocker for quicker, more responsive handling in ocean conditions
- Now with a longer and faster hull
- Optimized hull shape that maintains the same fast flatwater speed as our previous model
- Redesigned nose for the perfect balance between wave-cutting efficiency and lift in surf
- Sharper front deck for improved water flow
- More protected cockpit for a drier ride when running through waves
- Updated deBrito/NK bailer for more efficient drainage and reduced leakage
- Integrated fixing inserts for our newly developed cockpit hood/deflector with watch holder — finally, no more messy tape solutions!
