BALLER 87 x ZEPHYR S/S Tpdck
Tasked with building the ultimate dektop for kayak cross the choice of design was simple. We selected our BALLER 87 skirt with reinforced deck that is ready to take the boat on boat beating. It would not be for racing if was not attached to ZEPHYR top - light and stretchy so you can let the rest follow your tail.
ZEPHYR S/S Top
The Zephyr short sleeve is a featherweight semi-dry top that was carefully constructed with minimum seams to reduce weight as far as possible (we even cut the sleeves off!)
BALLER 87
Built for intermediate to advanced paddlers, the V2 of this bungee-style sprayskirt refines a trusted design with improved safety, durability, and sustainable materials. Made from 4 mm e.prene—an eco-friendly alternative to traditional neoprene—it offers dependable performance while reducing environmental impact.
What’s New in V2:
Reinforced T-Bar Pull Strap: A redesigned front pull strap now ends in a solid T-bar, giving you a secure, slip-free grip even in turbulent conditions or with gloves on. The closed-loop-free design reduces entrapment risk and can be tucked under your PFD strap for easy access while scouting or portaging.
Tedate Edge Reinforcement: Inspired by the shields of ancient Japanese warriors, Tedate is a high-durability Japanese coating now applied to all exposed edges of the skirt. This protects high-wear areas from abrasion, extending the lifespan of the sprayskirt without compromising flexibility.
Made from Carboflex which is an extremely light and elastic fabric
The inside of the Zephyr top is further completed with a cellulose-based finish to minimize friction between the paddler and garment, allowing one to move as freely as possible.
One can easily forget about the neoprene cuffs and collar as they are constructed from thin and flexible Neospan for more comfort.
Designed for the demands of racing, great for any water activity.
Supratex Outer Laminate: The top layer of the skirt features abrasion-resistant Supratex nylon, built to withstand the demands of whitewater paddling.
Silicone Rim Grip: A sticky silicone coating along the inside edge enhances grip on the cockpit rim, keeping the skirt securely in place even in challenging water.
Bungee Rim Seal: A strong bungee cord runs the perimeter of the sprayskirt, providing a tight, watertight fit and reliable hold.
Flexible Sizing: Optimized for cockpits around 87 cm (34.2 in), with a fit range of 82–92 cm (32.2–36.2 in), this skirt fits most modern creek boats.
