Blender 2.90 - Loft NURBS - create lofted shapes from NURBS Surfaces (2020)

my error was:
thanks szymon add a SURFACE nurbs curve or circle…do not use add curve to get segment surface option
and
select a cv to get option endpoint uv in curve and surface

(IF BLENDER WANTS TO COMPETE WITH 3DSMAX AND MAYA, it needs to be
able to convert a curve object to a SURFACEcurve object not sure if any add on)

thx
