Does anyone know where you can buy nylon spraydecks for club slalom kayaks.

Have you tried these:

They may be a bit baggy but they seem to work fine. Lomo had smaller decks that may be better suited to slalom cockpits but the material was quite stiff and IMHO had potential to delaminate in our store.

Thanks for the link. Do you know if they fit the smaller cockpit of a slalom kayak. We've got loads of normal size ie. to fit plastic GP and River. The spraydecks we're using for our club slalom boats fit from slalom boats of years ago and are falling apart.

The Endless River decks are adjustable for both cockpit and waist so you can pull in the elastic and they will fit. However as with many of these decks they remain loose fitting so may pond water in the spraydeck

. Good point is they will also fit the general river plastic boats so less hassle in sorting out the right deck when dealing with newbies on Club sessions.

Alternatively contact Hydrosports, they supplied Peak Nylon decks when we bought a fleet of new Vajda slalom boats a couple of years ago, so at the very least have the contacts and details to guide you.
