Palm Atom is the second version of the Atom suit that has been upgraded with YKK AquaSeal entry and relief zips. This version of the Atom suit is a simpler‚ tougher whitewater suit through optimization of the number of seams and positioning them to minimize wear.
The Palm Atom kayak drysuit features a simple and innovative design. It is lightweight, breathable and completely waterproof. The knees, elbows and shoulder areas are all reinforced with cordura making the suit extremely durable and robust. The suit also provides an easy to access relief zip.
Nevertheless, some kayakers feel that the added shoulder protection affects the suit’s ability to provide a comfortable movement as it can restrict the shoulder’s full range of motion.
