The Palm Atom Suit features an XP 4-layer fabric construction, which is exceptionally tough, durable and also breathable. The Atom Suit is easy to get on and off due to the rear access zip. Palm have opted to use a YKK AquaSeal Zip, the same zip has also been used for the relief zip. The cut of this kayaking drysuit is all about freedom and range of movement, thanks to its articulated cut. This means that all the key areas that bend whilst white water kayaking are already pre-bent into a natural position.
The other element of the Palm Atom kayaking drysuit is to keep dry, so to achieve this it features fabric socks to protect the feet. The neck has a latex seal, which is then protected by a ultra-stretch neoprene cone. The wrists also feature latex seals that are protected by Velcro adjustable neoprene outer cuffs. Another seal that features on the Atom is the double waist system. This ensures that you can create a good seal with your kayak spraydeck. In order to keep things organised and close to hand, the chest area also features a small pocket. This pocket is accessed by a zip, its ideal for storage of small items but the pocket isn't waterproof!
