About the 520
The Nelo 520 surfski is not your typical stable surfski. Nelo has changed the game with its innovative concave hull design.
The 520 is similar in stability with other brands, however it is absolutely more agile, faster and surfs better than anything in its class.
We back this boat so much that we challenge you to take the 520 and compare it to your boat. Use a gps and experience it for yourself!
what people say
A Terrific Surfski: Quick, Stable, Fun!
I’ve been paddling the 520 L in the WWR layup, for two months now, and am delighted with it in every way. Highly recommended for beginners and seasoned paddlers alike.
