Cags suitable for River Use
A canoe or kayak cag is an over-the-head style jacket that has seals on the
waist, wrist and neck. The cag offers protection from wind and rain while the
seals help to keep water out. With buoyancy
aids and helmets,
it's the most basic item of clothing for paddlers.
Styles of Cag
If you're after a cag for salt water use, have a look at our Sea
and Touring cag section. If you are looking for cags for outdoor
centre or group work look at our range of Centre
Canoe Cags. For river paddling, read on!
River cags come in a few different styles: summer weight,
semi dry and dry, and the quality of wrist and waist seals varies
from basic velco closures to very techy latex and neoprene options. A double
waist seal, for example, will give you less leakage around the spray
deck.
Basic summer cags usually have a neoprene neck with a velcro adjuster. This
makes them very easy to get on and off and offers ventilation on warm days. The
wrist seals usually follow the same style, or have a non adjustable neoprene
seal.
Semi Dry cags are fitted with a non adjustable neoprene neck which
gives a good seal and is pretty comfortable. They usually have latex wrist seals
to give the driest available option. Look at these for a good all round
cag.
Dry Cags give you maximum protection from the elements, with latex and
neoprene on all seals. Expect a high quality cag in every way, with well
thought-out features and cut. The only way of improving on this is to use a full
dry
suit. For maintainence of latex seals, we have a Seal
Saver Treatment from Stormsure, in the Equipment
Service and Repair section.
Recommendations
For newcomers to the sport who want a basic entry level cag for mainly use in
the summer with easily adjustable wrists, waist and neck we suggest the Palm
Vector, Yak
Quest and the Yak
Strobe. The Palm
Vector and the Yak
Quest are also available in kid's sizes.
Intermediate paddlers who want a cag suitable for basic white water could
look at a semi dry options. These models have a non adjustable neoprene neck
that will offer a tight seal. We suggest the Palm
Kinetic, Nookie
Airhead or the Yak
Force, but there are plenty of choices in this range. The Yak
Fusion , for example, is a good breathable option for warmer weather as it
is a short sleeve cag. Ladies should look at the Palm
Lara for an excellent women's fit semi dry option.
If you are looking to paddle more challenging water (or just like to be warm
and dry!), consider a dry cag like the ever-popular Palm
Sidewinder or the Nookie
Assault. For paddlers who suffer with latex neck seals you might want to
consider the Nookie Zone. For the ladies, there is the Palm
Naiya.
Palm and Nookie also do Dry
trousers that do match their selection of cags..
