A simple bungee skirt that offers a great balance of performance and value for beginner-intermediate whitewater, touring, and sea kayakers.

The Shockwave Bungee Sprayskirt is designed to deliver a user-friendly experience for all types of paddlers. A 4mm Supratex II deck and 3mm neoprene tunnel are mated to an abrasion-resistant 4mm Supratex casing. An easy pull bungee makes this skirt easy to put on while rubberized grip strips on the underside of the deck keep the skirt securely in place when the going gets rough. The 3D high-vis webbing grab handle keeps its shape making it easy to find and pull in disorienting situations. The Shockwave is available in a wide variety of cockpit and tunnel sizes to fit nearly any boat and paddler.

Here is how the Shockwave Bungee Spray Skirt stacks up against our other models. Results may vary depending on your cockpit rim. For a breakdown of our entire line of skirts, click here.

How to choose the right size spray skirt for your kayak

The most accurate measurement for a spray skirt is your kayak cockpit rim circumference. Most current kayak cockpit rim circumferences can be found in our spray skirt fit database . If your boat is not listed, you can measure your cockpit rim yourself. Grab a piece of string, rope, or a tape measure. Follow your cockpit rim around at its broadest point, marking when you begin the measurement. If using a string/rope, lay the string in a straight line and measure from point A to point B, and you will find your cockpit rim circumference. Happy cockpit measuring! 

Use your normal pants waist size as a reference point. If you don't know your normal size, use a soft measuring tape to measure your waist. Take this number and subtract 2" then boom, you have your recommended tunnel size.
