Dear All,
Hereunder you will find the most extensive and refined Nah-Skwell collection to
date.
Beyond the usual superlative words that your knowledge of Nah-Skwell shapes do
not require any more, we wish to stress the quality of our production.
Produced in one-shot-sandwich (OSS) construction, in a very modern factory, with
woods from managed forests and limited VOC-content paints, Nah-Skwell boards
are very precisely reproduced and super-light, yet durable.

THE FIT 11’
Designed for YOUR pleasure.
A floating gym c/w exploration craft,
but one which doesn’t fear waves!
Feel your body:
Standing up in balance, every movement shall be smooth
and fluid, activating many muscle chains, in particular
lateral ones and abdominal oblique muscles (yes! those
which make your stomach slimmer ...), without any risk
of trauma.
Discover your environment:
Be first to tour marshes, rivers, secluded coves, that
nobody has ever plied while standing-up
Enjoy gliding the swell and small waves.
Thanks to its refined under-body, the FIT 11’ glides and
accelerates effortlessly on the swell. It surfs the
slightest bump and is very easily manoeuvred on small
waves.
FIT 11’ SHAPE
True ship-bow + double concave associated to a long and progressive vee.
The double concave “frees” the bow and directs water-flow.
The scoop-line is kicked-up in the one-foot-off both to ease the water-flow
exit at the tail and sharpen man oeuvres.
Rails are significantly rounded forward to enhance glide, whatever the seaconditions

2013 SURF SHAPE
Very thin rails guarantee greater stability and excellent maneuverability in
deeper wave-sections.
A straightened scoop-line, still well rockered up-front, gives them the
requested speed at the take-off and in the surf, when the rider needs to rule
over the waters.
Set with MT Thrusters and US Box Centre Fin, and boosted through a single
concave along the whole length, the new 2013 Surf series are both
responsive and fast!

Sport!
A true competition and touring board
Paddle fast and long distance!
A true ship-bow guarantees a soft-glide all along.
A decent (73cm) width enhances stability for the rider to
use his full power and keep balance in the chop.
A clean deck unencumbered by any fussy adds-on allows
the rider to move freely and catch any bump for a speedy
surf
A race-board, yes, but one which covers distances
efficiently opening new touring-grounds to fit riders, as
well.

SCOW
Revolutionary?
Smooth, fast, incredibly stable and yet so responsive in the turn!
Flat-water: faster top-speed and outstanding accelerations.
Downwind: great surfs without any yaws, start earlier, surfs longer
A straighter scoop-line is the key to higher speeds.
The “boxed” outline and resulting increased directional
stability allow the rider to “change side” less often and
be more efficient.
The well spread-out volume gives a much greater
stability in anything from a 25° to 180° chop and makes
beam-seas so much more comfortable
SCOW SHAPE
Hull bottom: convex forward followed by a vee to be straightened aft.
Rails: soft and tucked-under forward, to be progressively squared towards the
tail.

LONGBOARD SERIES
High performance surfing
Soul, Purity, Style
NEW
LONGBOARD SERIES
At a time when short-boards radicalize SUP surfing and contests,
Nah-Skwell dares to innovate in inviting you to ride in the wake of
the ancestral spirit and purity of the surf culture
A board gifted with a perfect glide, allowing early takeoff and immediate speed on any wave-size.
Stuck on the nose of the board, you shall discover and
enjoy unique sensations, suspended over the wavethrough
In a deep and larger wave, the Longboard series thin and
pinched tail shall allow you going fast and/or turning
abruptly and very shortly: you’ll never find yourself
dominated by your board.
LONGBOARD SHAPE
Two short vees, shaped in both the forward and aft one-foot section, bring
that little extra manoeuvrability, which allows short turns when needed.
Associated to quite thin rails, a progressive double-concave guarantees
stability and speed when gliding or within curves.
The « Thrusters » fin configuration is set with side-fins widely apart to
greatly enhance grip and manoeuvrability in the surf

SCHOOL PROGRAM

NAH-SKOOL SERIES
Stability and glide
Comfortable, rugged and durable
NAH-SKOOL SERIES
Because it is possible to learn on swift and nimble boards, providing
they are friendly enough to the pupils and comfortable.
Deck and rail fully covered in soft
EVA, for less harm when climbing
back on and/or knee-paddling.
Comfortable and durable!
Early paddle-strokes hitting the
rails more often than pushing
water? No problem there is a full
length thick EVA rail-protection!
A delicate balance between glide
and stability factors allows an
early enjoyment of the sport.
NAH-SKOOL SHAPE
This is the Kool Shape!
Short-length vee at the nose to free water-entry and prevent any tripping in
turns; progressive and light double-concave to enhance softness of glide and
stability, ending in a short vee at tail to allow better carving.

TO BE CONTINUED
FROM 2012
1 RANGE
The fast evolution of the upper end of the sport has led Nah-Skwell and
competitors alike to move towards thinner and shorter wave-boards.
Those will not prove as friendly as the previous ones to intermediate
Supers.
Following a number of discussions, we have decided to maintain the
capacity of distributors to place orders for new 2012 design surf-series
boards.
