Palm Rocket Kids' Jacket: Full-featured protection for future whitewater champions

Rocket Kids: The Safety and Comfort of the Pros

The Palm Rocket jacket is designed to provide young aspiring paddlers with the same level of safety and comfort that professionals demand. The main goal of this model is to keep children dry even in the demanding conditions of whitewater, which is key to preventing hypothermia and keeping paddling fun. Unlike cheap children’s rain jackets, the Rocket is a true technical jacket that can withstand rough handling and contact with rocks. The fit is optimized so that it doesn’t get in the way when moving in the cockpit and allows for maximum torso rotation during paddling strokes.

Construction and Material: Durable XP 2-layer fabric

The jacket is made from durable 2-layer XP fabric, which offers an excellent balance between waterproofing and breathability. This material is lightweight yet sturdy enough to withstand a child’s enthusiasm both on shore and on the water. All inner seams are carefully taped, ensuring that the entire garment remains 100% waterproof even after prolonged use.

Cuffs and Seals: Reliable Protection Against Water

The most important factor in keeping water out is high-quality cuffs:

• Wrist: The wrists feature latex cuffs (Latex wrist seals) that prevent water from entering the suit even when the diver capsizes. These cuffs are also protected by an adjustable neoprene cover. The outer Velcro-adjustable cuffs effectively protect the latex seals from damage and UV radiation.
• Krk: There is a neoprene collar around the neck that conceals an inner latex seal (Latex neck seal). This reliable combination ensures that water won't get inside, even when performing an Eskimo roll.

Comfort and Safety: Double Waistband and Reflective Details

The Palm Rocket jacket features a number of elements that make time on the water easier for both children and their parents:

• Double Waist (Twin Waist / Double Waist System): It consists of an inner waistband made of XP 2-layer material and an outer adjustable neoprene waistband, which ensures a perfect fit with the wetsuit.
• Anatomical sleeve design: Anatomically shaped sleeves (Articulated sleeves) ensure that the fabric does not bunch up under the arms and does not restrict range of motion.
• Improved visibility: Integrated reflective elements (Reflective details) significantly improve a child's visibility both on the water and on shore.

What is this jacket suitable for?

This model is ideal for ambitious young paddlers who are not afraid of challenges:

• Kayaking Clubs and Training: This is reliable equipment for regular training on the canals.
• Whitewater (WW II–IV): It provides comprehensive protection for downhill runs with parents or in a club.
• Eskimo Roll Lessons: Thanks to the latex cuffs, the diver stays dry even during repeated dives.
• Summer expeditions and multi-day descents: It ensures perfect thermal comfort during sudden changes in the weather.
