Works very well..ots my first skirt so no comparisons but does what I need..Im using the XXL on my LL xP10..fits snug only non issue is make sure that the rubber grip is locked down by your hip area ..acts like it wants to roll off but there is infact a "sweet spot" and holds well once u get the hang of it..tunnel stretches a little when wet ..I chose the XL soze but I have a 36" pant waist...thought since I was at the end og the Large size I better go up one...Dont!...its a lil loose when wet but my pfd waist band keeps it secure...alll in all..great for roll practice ..and some whitewater...oh and Ive had it out on the lake roll practicing during 95° sun beating down on it and it breathes great..Awesome product
Great skirt. I was kinda leaning towards a snap dragon. But decided on this one because it was on sale. Took it on the local run yesterday. Held up great fits real tight. Love the reinforcement. Great skirt. Must buy for the price.

This is an extremely easy skirt to get on and off, and it's surprisingly dry for a bungee skirt, unlike certain other brands' bungee skirts that leak like sieves. I would rate this skirt ideal for newbies and easy going paddlers, who don't abuse their equipment and/or don't paddle gnar. If you tend to be rough on your skirts, you might want to look at IR's new Reinforced Shockwave, which is reinforced where it's likely to get paddle dings; and if you tend to paddle gnar, the best rubber rand skist on the markets nowadays is IMO the IR Lucky Charm. I liked my first Shockwave foir my Hoss so much I got another one in the XL deck for my 4Fun.
The IR Shockwave Spray Skirt is a great all around, easy on whitewater skirt. It's been designed for all whitewater kayaking disciplines. Made with a unique bungee/rubber sheath seal that does the impossible: it's easy to put on, very dry, and resists implosion like a rand skirt. Tear resistant, stretchy, durable, Supratex throughout. Double-sewn bungee for added durability. Adjustable deck exit strap color coded by waist size.
