Anyone ever consider drysuits from OS Systems instead of NRS, Stohlquist, Kokatat, etc ?

I looked at them as they are signifcantly cheaper than most, I dont think they come with "skirt tunnels" though...prob not the best for whitewater kayaking. GL

The OS systems drysuits DO have a built in Spray Skirt Cover to reduce water intake into the kayak.

They also offer Full Custom/Semi-Custom Sizing and
Semi-Custom Sizing - Lengthen or shorten any two (arms, torso, legs).

OS Systems doesn't need to advertise as they primarily supply Coast Guard, Military,
Governmental Search and Rescue operations (SAR) , etc. etc.

Might be worth a second look for many kayakers

Awesome and URSUK even has a distributor in the USA !

I know there are many alternatives to NRS, Kokotat and Stohlquist and just
because they are made in a foreign country doesn't immediately taint the workmanship.

I love having options.........thanks Sauli

Kokatat made in the US of A

Okay bust my balls on syntax - the alternatives made in foreign countries.
Hey, my sea kayak was made in South Africa from an Oscar Chalupsky design.
My alliance goes toward great products regardless of where they are located.

I dont thnk anyone is ball busting, I think A.T. was just givivng a shout out for a product he really likes, good to know about the skirt tunnel. Glad to hear you are stoked on your suit.

It's all good guys
Keep the paddles wet and the cockpits dry !
