Level Six Club Bungee Spray Skirt - Waterproof Kayak Skirt for Whitewater & Sea Kayaking - Secure Fit for Paddling Adventures

I bought this for ocean kayaking in my Wilderness Systems Tsunami 165. It is a bit tight and I really have to work to stretch it, but it fits. It is a lot easier to get on when it's wet though. Cockpit dimensions are 35.5"L x 19"W. If your cockpit is the same or slightly smaller, it will fit. It stays secure when I roll, and even with how tight it fits, a quick tug of the grab loop pops it off easily for a wet exit. The strap that goes across is a great backup in the event someone unknowingly has their grab loop under the skirt. This was a good buy and at a good price, considering the cost of similar skirts.-Piper's boyfriend :-)This is a bungee type skirt so easier to get on/off than a rand. [NOTE: a rand is usually considered better in class 4-5 waters to prevent implosion (water pressing on skirt causing it to pop loose from cowling). A rand skirt is much harder to put on and release from cockpit cowling/rim. Some made for extreme conditions take concerted effort to release/pop.] Material is avg thickness for this class of skirt. The "escape webbing" across the skirt is more of a European design. I t is there to give you another way to pop the skirt if you cannot get to the grab loop. This skirt also has neoprene with "traction rubber" lip that extends about 1" past the bungee to give extra grip and seal to the cockpit rim.Personally I am not a fan of the "lip" neo outside the bungee. I find it a needless hassle when putting skirt on as it is not attached/wrapped to the bungee so it has to be smoothed and aligned with your fingers as you put skirt on. This is also a newer innovation and as no other bungee skirt I have used over the years had it I see no need for it. I have never used the "escape" type webbing as it did not exist when I started paddling so I do not find it an asset. The Club graphic I also do not care for (I took a black magic marker to it and it can still be seen as shiny black design on black neo but less noticeable). After a couple of other modifications I found the skirt to be quite serviceable.I needed an inexpensive skirt for a used ww kayak I had purchased as none of my good skirts would fit. As this boat would not be used on anything over class 3-4 I wanted a bungee for ease of use. I should say that there are bungee skirts that will hold up well in class 4 and 5. I used them for years before going to an extreme rand for my 5+ runs where a blown skirt was not an option. These bungee skirts will have larger much stronger bungees and thicker neo and often reinforced rims. This Club skirt has a smaller bungee, thinner neo, and no rim reinforcement. It will be fine in up to class 3 and certain 4 in my opinion.The sizing fit well and the adjustable tunnel was a nice option. This skirt will work well for my intended purposes. Would make a great beginner to intermediate river runner or coastal skirt. For a play boat I would go with a different skirt. Ref: I have been paddling flat water, white water, and coastal for over 40 years as well as instruction.The quality is a little lacking in thickness of material. I'm not fond of the skirt lip, it continuously wants to slide up and off of the cockpit. The width is a little narrow when compared to the length. It fits without sliding off the sides of my RPM, but barely stays put on my Animas. Hoping it will stretch a bit and not snap off so much.Nice inexpensive skirt. fit nicely. can roll with this product. get what you pay forNot good. Cheap quality. Horrible fit on cockpit coaming due to the way it is made. Returned it as fast as I could!Buyer beware!
