A review of the Stohlquist FreeRyde dry top from Adventure Kayak magazine.
Gaskets at the wrists and neck make Stohlquist’s best-selling FreeRYDE the only true dry top in our line-up. Updated for 2012, the top is made from a new four-layer waterproof/breathable fabric with a revised cut that improves fit and eliminates weak points in the stitching. The sticky grip double waist tunnel stays put while you’re paddling. Even better, the soft-feel neoprene neck gasket does the same job as traditional latex, minus the skin rash and strangulation.
