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.

R1 Lite Yulex Surf Short - Women's

Description

R1 Lite Yulex Surf Short - Experience the ultimate warmth and comfort with Patagonia's R1 Lite Yulex Surf Short. With its 1.5-millimeter thickness, this surf short is perfect for those early-morning sessions and breezy conditions. Designed for warmer water ranging from 65 to 75 degrees.

The low-cut design enhances flexibility, allowing you to effortlessly navigate through oncoming waves and drop into clean swells. The smooth flatlock seams keep chafing and irritation at bay, ensuring you can surf all day long.

But that's not all. Patagonia is committed to sustainability and has taken a stand against the use of petroleum-intensive methods and toxic chemicals in traditional neoprene wetsuits. That's why they've introduced Yulex rubber, a bio-based alternative that offers the same level of warmth and performance as neoprene. So not only will you stay warm and flexible, but you'll also be helping the environment.

In 2019, Patagonia has further improved the Yulex, making it even lighter, stretchier, and more comfortable than ever before.
