Let's talk cold water gear

[jbaker]

Kokatat supernova angler paddling suit. I'm in love with mine. Just spent the day on the lake doing rescues and re-entry training with Sean Morley from Jackson kayaks. The water temp was around 49* and I spent a good amount of the day in it. I've been using Kokatat suits for the last 2 years and they can't be beat. I know it might be over kill down there but it's the ultimate in cold weather gear

No doubt !! I have a Kokatat Meridian goretex full suit I use for hooping and I agree it's the ultimate cold water protection.

They use these things on arctic expeditions for a reason.


I also own a Navy Seal Kokatat Goretex assault suit.


That's my suit a medium. It's pretty much the same thing except it's actually a little better made, has slightly thinner material, and has added padding at the knees. Great gear. I'll give it up to Kokatat they have to be the only manufacturer on earth to actually give the government a better product then they sell retail.

I like that Navy Seal suit.

Kokatat dry suits are the number one choice here in the PacNW. They would be to warm for the SD conditions, but when the water is in the 40's and the air is below 30°, it's the only way to go.
