 Mountain Surf Sympatex Long-Sleeved DryDeck

"Warm water and warm weather might eliminate the need for a drytop, but a sprayskirt by itself does not provide a dry ride. Most people have a "detent" along their spine, and the skirt's neoprene tunnel bridges across this depression rather than fitting to it. The result is a channel right down your backbone where water can flow directly into the hull. The bottom line is that a sprayskirt and a drytop are both required to achieve a watertight ride, and with them come torso restriction. As an Engineer and an entrepreneur, my natural reaction was to work on a better way."
