Over the last 25 years, we've pioneered packrafting from the durable little stubby open boats of the early 2000's to modern advanced hull designs like the Valkyrie and Mage that can take on some of the most famous whitewater runs in the world. Even though we introduced the first packraft whitewater deck in 2012, our spray skirts have changed little over the last decade and have been more focused on weight and packability than whitewater performance. Our first attempt at a higher performance packraft spray skirt, the HD skirt was a big leap forward but we needed help to take the next step.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eEnter Immersion Research. While we were innovating packrafts, Immersion Research was innovating kayak spray skirts for the world's best athletes on the world's hardest whitewater. Alpacka's experience as the industry leader in packraft design and Immersion Research's experience as the industry leader in spray skirt design came together as the perfect collaboration to create a skirt that is perfectly matched to our highest performance packrafts.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sixmile Skirt aims to bridge the gap in packraft innovation and paddler progression by providing the driest, properly fitting spray skirt for those seeking to explore more whitewater paddling opportunities.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"module accordion\"\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid-container\"\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"grid-x grid-margin-x\"\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"cell small-12\"\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-row active\"\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"title\"\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"content default\"\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-tension bungee is user-friendly while offering a tight and dry fit\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e1.5mm abrasion-resistant Supratex II neoprene casing \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e210d high tenacity nylon 6,6 TPU single side laminated with a heavy-duty pigmented TPU film.
