Thanks to Palm Equipment<\/a> and Northshore Watersports<\/a> (for piggy backing delivery) I have a Palm Impact Spraydeck<\/a> in for review. The Palm Impact<\/a> replaces the Extreme as Palm’s top end neoprene bungee deck. First impressions are good. The deck looks and feels solid. It is well made and the black\/lime colour scheme is bang on trend!<\/p>\n

\"Unsponsored-palm<\/a> <\/p>\n

On the outside there is a protective 4mm Armortex reinforcement to increase the robustness of the deck. This should make the Impact of interest to those who put their decks through a rough time.<\/p>\n

\"Unsponsored-palm<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The brightly coloured quick release webbing also has a narrowing piece of tape and a buckle so that you deck can be fastened to your PFD and out of the way whilst portaging etc.<\/p>\n

\"Unsponsored-palm\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The 9.5mm bungee shock cord and latex Palm print on the underside of deck to aid the deck staying put on the cockpit. The print is nice and wide and no doubt will have good purchase on the cockpit edge.<\/p>\n

\"Unsponsored-palm<\/a><\/p>\n

Taping on the outside join also looks pretty tough. I have had a similar tape on a Mountain Hardware softshell that has been battered and it is still holding up well so this addition looks promising.<\/p>\n

\"Unsponsored-palm<\/a><\/p>\n

The reflective Palm logo is a nice touch.<\/p>\n

\"Unsponsored-palm<\/a><\/p>\n

One of the big features on the deck is on the body tube. The bulk of the tube is pretty standard but at the top edge the neoprene cinches in, Palm<\/a> call this the O ring. This should help create a good seal between body and deck.<\/p>\n
