This morning the postman dropped off a big parcel of goodies from Level Six. Included amongst my trendy hats, shirts, caps and thermals was my awesome looking dry suit. Billed as athlete designed, it actually was, with emails flying back and forth about pee zips and socks last year. Hotly anticipated since OR last year it’s finally made it here. Unfortunately just in time for the summer, but it’s never to early to get hyped for next season. The boys in Canada have been shredding in the Barrier for a little while now, Zach had this to say “The new Barrier Drysuit is keeping me perfectly dry and does not constrict the movement needed for waves like Chambly at all.”

The new suit has all the features I’ve come to love from the Mack cag, combined the funky styling of the Georgian dry trousers. Big chest pocket with little jobby for the car key, sleeve pocket, plenty of room without being baggy, and the really good waist tightening system. Add to this a couple of pockets in “normal” places, proper metal zips on the back and the crotch that you can do up on your own, decent zip covers, and reinforced soles to the feet and you’ve got a sweet suit. I’ve not got out in it yet as it’s lovely and warm here and I’m trying to revise for my finals, but I’m dead excited about living out of this suit on the rivers of India this summer.
The suit, so fresh it still has labels on it!

Re-enforced soles to the socks, and the trendy flares.
The pee zip and cover, again full metal zip and decent tab to pull, probably even works with one hand.
Level Six are brought into Europe by Rokxat Adventure Traders, with luck there will be some kit in the shops of the UK soon! If you want some more info on the suit check out THE INFO! or drop me an email.
