The affordable, versatile, multisporter's essential.
Looking for a long-sleeved paddle jacket to keep you comfortable through your first season of paddling? For entry-level multisport kayakers doing the Coast to Coast race, the Palm Vertigo Semi-Dry Paddle Jacket is one of the best choices out there.
Constructed from lightweight waterproof fabric, this jacket will keep you warm during your Grade 2 Kayak Course in spring, yet be packable enough to carry in your drybag during upcoming races. Long sleeves keep water out while providing plenty of room for mobility as you perfect your forward stroke. To protect you from hypothermia, latex rubber wrist seals and a neoprene neck keep the cold water out of your sleeves and collar, while Velcro® over-cuffs prevent leakage.
This jacket is ideal for multisport paddling in the South Island where water temperatures are cool. A very popular choice for beginners, especially those who aspire to compete in the Coast to Coast Race for the first time.
