Nalu Canoes proudly introduces its latest innovation – the Hybrid Prepreg Carbon/Glass Fiber Construction. Designed to elevate your canoeing experience, this groundbreaking construction option combines cutting-edge composite technology with cost-effective solutions, ensuring unparalleled quality, durability, and affordability.
At the core of this new construction is our commitment to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in outrigger canoe design. The hybrid approach allows us to integrate state-of-the-art prepreg materials, ensuring the highest quality in every canoe. What sets this construction apart is its unique combination of carbon and glass fiber – a strategic blend that optimizes strength, minimizes weight, and provides exceptional value.
Utilizing prepreg Glass fiber in place of carbon in non-critical areas allows us to offer a more cost-effective solution without compromising on structural integrity. To maintain the lightweight profile crucial for performance, we strategically reinforce with carbon fiber in critical areas, resulting in a finished oc1 that is only 2 kg or 4.4 lbs heavier than the full carbon version.
The hulls boast a sleek matte grey finish, enhancing durability and scratch resistance, setting a new standard for aesthetic appeal. Complementing the grey hulls are a variety of vibrant colors for the Ama, allowing paddlers to personalize their canoe with style.
Key Features:
- Cost-Efficiency: A hybrid approach that reduces costs without sacrificing quality.
- Lightweight Design: Strategically placed carbon reinforcement keeps weight at a minimum.
