« on: August 31, 2012, 12:13:02 AM »
Hi guys, what do you think about these for paddling? Or is a traditional drysuit better? Eddie

I bought the Kokatat Lightweight Goretex Paddling Suit. Has a pee zipper and I couldn't be more thrilled with it. Can't wait to paddle SUP in the snow  ;D

a good friend of mine here that i SUP with has one and loves it. it' like 2mm thick but as warm as a 6 or 7 mil or something. it's three layers (under, dry, wetsuit material) and a bit of a challenge for him to put on. he says its a bit of a mission to get on, and due to all the air that gets trapped inside he has to use a vaccum every time to get the air out. he also said the neck was incredibly tight and had to cut it to fit.
aside from that, i believe he paid about $800 canadian for it (equiv to USD). that price throws me off completely but i remember seeing them on sale last year? if i found one for a good price i'd probably jump on it.....and i am currently in need of a new winter suit as well (even though i just want to move somewhere warm to avoid these winter sessions, gross!)
