Palm Rocket Kids' Suit: Total Protection and Dry Comfort for the Youngest Experts

Rocket Kids: Keeping Out the Cold and Wet

The Palm Rocket children’s drysuit is designed to eliminate the biggest obstacle for young paddlers—the cold and wet. Unlike a combination of a separate jacket and pants, this one-piece suit offers 100% assurance that water won’t reach the body even in the most critical situations, such as paddling through rapids or practicing Eskimo rolls. The suit’s ergonomics are fully adapted to a child’s moving body, allowing for a full range of motion without restriction. The Rocket isn’t just a scaled-down version of the adult model—it’s a precisely tuned piece of gear that boosts a young paddler’s confidence on the water.

Construction and Materials: XP 3-layer and 320D Nylon

When it comes to children's gear, the quality of the materials is key to durability and comfort:

• XP 3-layer fabric: A high-performance three-layer fabric that offers an excellent balance between durability and breathability. It actively wicks away body heat and moisture, preventing a stuffy feeling even during high levels of activity in children.
• 320D Nylon Reinforcement: High-wear areas, such as the knees and seat, are reinforced with durable 320D nylon, ensuring high mechanical resistance during frequent contact with the boat or rocks.
• Integrated socks: These breathable socks, made of 4-layer XP fabric with a nylon sole, keep your feet completely dry (we recommend wearing them with sturdy hiking boots or neoprene shoes).

Outfitting and Safety Features

Every detail of this suit is designed to maximize safety, dryness, and comfort for children:

• TiZip® MasterSeal Rear Entry: A flexible, 100% waterproof zipper positioned across the shoulders to minimize restrictions on the paddler’s movement and make it easier for an adult to help the child put on the suit.
• Latex Seals (Neck and Wrist Seals): High-quality latex collars around the neck and wrists, protected by neoprene sleeves for greater comfort and durability. They are essential for staying dry when in contact with water.
• Relief Zipper: A practical, waterproof zipper for comfort during all-day outings without having to take off your entire suit.
• Adjustable waist: The elastic drawcord (drawcord waist) allows the suit to be better adjusted to fit a child's body and prevents excess fabric.

Suitable Activities and Uses on the Water

The Palm Rocket kids' suit is the ultimate choice for young talents in any situation:

• Year-round training with the club: It ensures thermal comfort even during workouts in the cold winter and spring months.
• Whitewater (WW II–IV): It provides maximum safety and thermal protection for young riders on challenging terrain.
• Technique and Eskimo Roll Instruction: Because it stays completely dry, it doesn't discourage students from staying underwater and helps them learn skills more quickly.
• Multi-day expeditions and touring: Complete protection against wind, rain, and cold water all day long on lakes and rivers.

Care and Maintenance of Children's Dry Suits

Investing in a high-quality drysuit requires proper care to maintain its functionality:

• Cleaning: After each use, especially in saltwater or dirty water, rinse the wetsuit thoroughly with clean fresh water.
• Drying: Dry inside out in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Never dry in direct sunlight or near heat sources, as this would irreparably damage the latex cuffs.
• Zipper Maintenance: Clean the TiZip® zipper regularly and lubricate it with the included silicone lubricant to ensure it remains 100% watertight and operates smoothly.
• Latex Protection: Treat the cuffs with talcum powder or a special glycerin-based product to prevent them from drying out and cracking.

Technical parameters and specifications

Size Chart (Kids' outerwear)

To ensure maximum functionality, breathability, and safety, it is critically important to choose the right size. The suit should be neither too tight (which restricts movement and reduces breathability) nor too loose (which increases the risk of snagging and reduces thermal comfort).
