I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

Why We Like The Kokatat Hydrus 3.0 Swift Entry Drysuit

An excellent choice for beginners and occasional boaters, the Kokatat Hydrus 3.0 Swift Entry Drysuit keeps us dry and comfortable when rapids send us swimming out of our canoe, kayak, or raft. Built to keep us dry and comfortable on a budget, Kokatat's proprietary Hydrus 3.0 membrane is both completely waterproof and highly breathable, offering protection from water at a lower price than GORE-TEX dry suits.

The latex collars and cuffs of this drysuit not only seal out water, but also feature punch-through neoprene over the cuffs for extra protection. The seat and knees are reinforced with Hydrus Tough material for added abrasion resistance in high-wear areas. The waterproof relief zippers allow for convenient bathroom breaks without the need to remove the entire suit.

This popular and economical drysuit is proudly made in Arcata, California and is backed by Kokatat's limited lifetime warranty.
