Palm's Zenith Jacket is great for summer paddling with its shortsleeved design. The jacket is designed to keep water out with its velcro adjustable neoprene waistband. The neoprene fabric maintains warmth and the velcro strap enusres a slim fit for optimum movement when paddling and surfing. The YKK AquaGuard zips ensure water doesn't seep through the seams and maintains dryness. The twin waist allows a spraydeck to sit between the layers to provide protection from water entering through the deck. The Ultrastretch neoprene neck prevents water from entering the jacket. The neoprene fabric is very comfortable and soft to minimise chaffing. The jacket has reflective details, providing visibility in night time. Additionally, the eye catching colour combinations are great for safety and rescuing purposes.
