"I
recently had the opportunity to try out the Kokatat Gore-tex Idol drysuit with switchzip technology. Lyle Dickieson and I were teaching an advanced open
boat course in April on Vancouver Island. The weather was hot and sunny,
and the Nanaimo river was cold – perfect conditions to test out this
suit. First of all, getting dressed was so easy! Once I learned how
the zipper mechanism worked, the suit was so easy to put on and take off, with
no awkward physical manoeuvres required. On the water, it set a new
standard for comfort with no zipper underneath the PFD. The zipper
placement is well chosen and allows free, comfortable movement. At the
end of each of our paddling days, we had long, hot portages back to the
vehicles. It was so simple to remove just the pants of the suit, just the
jacket, or the whole suit. Next time I need a new drysuit, I’ll definitely
look for these features for superior comfort and versatility. Kokatat has
always provided friendly and professional service and the Kokatat rep, Nikki is
always wonderful! Thank you Nikki, for the use of the suit!"
Contact your local Kokatat dealer for demo opportunities or follow us on Facebook and Instagram at Nikki Rekman Sales to find out where we will be next and ask about trying any one of the drysuits in our demo fleet.
