Looking for a simple solution to keep sun and water off your legs while kayaking? The Perception sun shield is your answer. Featuring a no-tunnel design, this sun shield offers sun protection without confining you to a closed cockpit.

The sticky edging provides a tight grip on the cockpit rim and adds extra durability. With an implosion bar to prevent water from pooling on top of the shield, you’ll stay dry and comfortable even in rough waters. The large zippered mesh pocket on the deck provides a secure spot to stash items that can get wet, while the bungee rand makes it easy to put on and take off. Made from durable urethane-coated nylon, this sun shield is compatible with many kayak brands including Prodigy 10.0, 12.0 (2018 and earlier), Joy Ride 10.0 / 12.0, Swifty 9.5, 11.5, Odyssey, Sound 9.5, 10.5, and other kayaks with cockpits measuring 49-56” in length and 21-24” in width.

Details

Large zippered mesh pocket

The large zippered mesh pocket offers ample storage space for keeping your essential items secure and within reach. The mesh fabric allows for quickly identifying items and prevents water from accumulating. This means you can store snacks, water bottles, and small electronics that could get wet in the main cockpit area without worrying about them getting damaged.

Bungee rand

The bungee rand provides easy on/off access to quickly and securely attach it to your kayak cockpit. It allows for a snug and customizable fit, accommodating various cockpit sizes.

Durable urethane-coated nylon

This sun shield is made of durable urethane-coated nylon, providing superior protection from the elements. The nylon material is water- and UV-resistant, ensuring that it lasts through extended exposure to sunlight, saltwater, and other harsh conditions. The urethane coating protects against abrasions, tears, and punctures, making the sun shield a reliable and long-lasting accessory for any kayaker.

Implosion bar

The implosion bar is an innovative design element that prevents water from pooling on top of the sun shield. It reinforces the structure of the shield and ensures that it maintains its shape even in wet conditions, preventing it from collapsing due to the weight of water.
