Both scores are rated at the hull's own design weight. How these are derived.

46cm width and 6.0m length place it as Scofits' intermediate/advanced model (60-95kg), wider and shorter than the 41cm SSR — comparable to advanced 46cm skis such as the Nelo 550 (rated around stability 3-4), so it sits a touch more stable and slightly slower than the elite SSR/Bullet.

Paddler weight

This hull is built around a paddler of about 95 kg. It stays workable from 84 kg to 101 kg, and sits at its best between 88 kg and 97 kg.

Derived from published hull dimensions and calibrated against manufacturer paddler limits, not taken from a marketing range. The method, in full.

What works, and what it costs you

What works

  • More stable, forgiving hull for advancing paddlers
  • Fast marathon waterline in a manageable 46cm width
  • Light full-carbon build (~11kg)

Trade-offs

  • Still an advanced ski, not a beginner boat
  • Custom-order from Japan, no AU distribution
  • Sparse published specs

What paddlers say
