The Palm Atom Jacket is a number one choice for whitewater kayaking. This kayak cag works very well when paired with a pair of kayak dry trousers, it is also ideal for whitewater canoeing and stand up paddle boarding in the colder months!
Palm Equipment have designed the Atom Jacket to feature a 3 layer fabric construction. This offers the best levels of durability, it also gives great protection against water ingress whilst on the river. As well as being waterproof, the material has a good level of breathability. This kayak jacket incorporates an over the head design with a fully articulated cut. The articulation helps to give you the best levels of freedom for the maximum range of movement.
This Palm Atom Jacket is quite easy to get on and off, the neck has an inner latex gasket to keep the water out, whilst the outer layer of the neck is a neoprene cone. This gives enhanced warmth and comfort. The wrists feature latex gaskets for protection against the water, while the outer layer incorporates a Velcro adjustable, neoprene outer cuff for comfort. The waist system also incorporates a double design. The inner layer is quite basic, but the outer layer is made of neoprene and also features a Velcro adjustment tab on each side. The double waist system is great, as it can be used to create a seal with a pair of kayak dry trousers. It can also be used to create an enhanced seal with a neoprene spraydeck. The upper chest on this kayak dry cag also features a good size pocket. This is easy accessed via a waterproof zip. This is perfect for the storage of items you want to keep close at hand.
