Sprayskirts are an essential item for kayakers in all but the calmest conditions. All skirts have a torso worn around the waist, a deck that stretches over the cockpit and the rand that holds the skirt in place. Neoprene skirts are recommended for whitewater and surf kayaking, while nylon is suitable for sea kayaking adventures and offers more room and ventilation. A nylon/neoprene combination offers the best of both worlds for sea kayakers who may be paddling through rough waves.
