I recently bought a Nemesis M at kanoshop.nl, the European importer of Fluid. I have only paddled it a few times on a small wave/hole but I allready realy like this kayak.

At first, the boat might seem a bit big and heavy; but once on the water, this is quickly forgotten. The large cockpit allows for easy entry and exit and the Nemesis M is very roomy even for long legged paddlers. The adjustable thigh braces are perfect. The backrest gives a good support. The seat is a bit flat but this can be fixed with the foam supplied with the kayak. Adjustable hip pads are also supplied.

On flat water, if you first put it well on edge, it is easy to put on end.

It is very predictable in a hole. In the foam, it is very stable flat as well as on edge and you can link ends with fluidity even in shallow spots. I don't master the loop but due to it's well balanced volume it shouldn't be a problem. This boat is quite retentive.

On a wave, the rails have a good grip but are not too aggresive. With a wide hull and quite a lot of rocker the boat is quite fast, very easy to spin and it should bounce well from what I have experienced.

The Nemesis seems strong and well build. The hull is stiff and the plastic resists well to abrasion.

In conclusion, the boat is easy to handle on a wave as well as in a hole. It's made for paddlers between 70 and 90kg. A smaller and a bigger version will soon be available. This boats are well worth trying before buying anything else.
