The Crewsaver Atacama dry suit offers an exceptional level of heat retention when kayaking. The suit is breathable, waterproof, and extremely easy to put on, making it accessible to most kayakers. The Crewsaver Atacama also provides a great deal of comfort when kayaking, especially around the neck because of the neoprene gasket.
The Crewsaver Atacama is a versatile and resilient kayak dry suit, that is constructed with high quality fabric that is extremely breathable. It is reinforced with extra fabric at the seat and knees area of the suit.
Many kayakers are satisfied with this product due to its tight cuff seals, however, the neck seal tends to let in some water, making this a semi dry suit that will be more comfortable over longer paddles. That said, this kayak dry suit lacks a relief zip making less suitable for long kayak journeys.
The Crewsaver Atacama is a good choice for beginners who want an affordable and decent kayak semi drysuit.
