The new Racer ST is a unique and ground breaking three in one garment that combines a paddling jacket with spray deck and buoyancy aid for the ultimate streamlined performance. This revolutionary garment was four years in development and it sped Joe Clarke to Gold, Richard Hounslow and David Florence to Silver, in Rio.

Traditionally with a regular PFD athletes will have 40-50mm of buoyancy foam on the front and back of their body. The Racer ST holds around 30 percent of it’s flotation in it’s spraydeck, meaning now there’s only 20mm of flotation foam on the athlete’s body. Lines can be cut closer to the poles and run times reduced. This piece of kit is truly ‘Performance Enhancing’. It does of course meet all the ISO 12402 and ICF 6.12kg PFD safety standards. The Racer ST is available now in long and short sleeved versions attached to a Slalom C1 or K1 spraydeck. It is also available with a Whitewater Small, Keyhole or Bigdeck deck for the ultimate in freestyle or surf kayak performance. Proudly introducing the Racer ST. Enjoy!
Pete Astles. Peak UK Director.

Our written size guide is for use as a guide only. We suggest customers try garments before they buy to guarantee fit. Risk: Canoeing, kayaking and other watersports are high risk activities. Peak UK items do not guarantee rescue or survival. Users need the appropriate skill and training before heading out on the water. Peak UK one piece suits, jackets and pants are not survival or submersion suits. They are high performance items of paddling apparel. Warranty: Under normal use, Peak UK products are guaranteed for one year from the date of purchase against faults in manufacture and materials. Your receipt is your guarantee. Make sure you ask for a receipt at the point of sale and keep it safe. Peak UK gear is designed and tested for performance canoeing and kayaking only. Using it for other activities unless clearly stated is at your own risk and terminates the products warranty and Peak UK’s liability. Although Peak UK garments are made from top quality materials, using the best construction techniques available, they are not covered against excessive wear and tear, misuse, and over use. As a guide, a paddler who uses the garment two to three hours per week and looks after it well will get at least a years good use out of it. A professional, using it day in day out will need to replace the garment more often. Peak UK garments will not keep users 100% dry. Some water may enter via the garment’s seals and openings. Condensation can build up inside even though the garment is breathable. Breathability will reduce condensation, not eliminate it especially in damp and humid conditions.

Due to the fragile nature of the materials used, latex seals, neoprene seals and fabric socks are not covered by warranty. They can be replaced for a reasonable fee. Please do not modify your equipment. This will invalidate the items warranty.

Dry Zips & Suits: Visually inspect your suit and pant zips from time to time for any dirt or grit in the teeth as this will affect the seal. Clean the zip using a stiff brush and fresh water, then re lube it before every use with TIZIP / YKK lube. Dry one piece suits both inside and out before storage. Store them with the zip fully open.
Care: Store your equipment in a dry, dark, and cool place, away from any bright light, strong fumes, dampness or heat. An ideal storage temperature is 10-20 degrees C. Make sure your equipment is fully dried inside and out before storing away. If you leave any garments in your kit bag for a few days they will go mouldy and lose their performance. If your garment begins to stink, wash it with Grangers 30 degree cleaner and hang to drip dry. High areas of wear and tear such as the arm pits or your boat carrying shoulder may need some running repairs. Treat such areas with Aquasure Seamgrip adhesive. From time to time reproof the garment’s outer fabric with Grangers XT Proofer. Aquasure and Grangers products are available from good dealers or on the Peak UK website: www.peakuk.com
Latex / Neoprene Seals: To keep the seals in good shape, make sure you do not pull your garment on or off against them. Stretch each seal open when fitting and removing. If you drag the seals on and off they will fail and the taping may pop off. Be warned!!! Latex seals are designed to be cut to fit. If they are too tight, cut them down carefully and evenly with small sharp scissors, taking care not to leave any nicks. Cut off a small amount at a time, remembering that the seals will stretch a little with use.

Peak UK was formed back in 1990 when its founder Pete Astles was an up and coming slalom racer, funding his sport by working in a local kayak store. He fell ill and could not train for a few months, so became bored. As the products stores were badly designed and sized poorly he decided to try making some garments of his own. With help from a sewing machinist friend they soon made a prototype jacket and PFD. His fellow slalom racers all wanted these jackets and PFDs, that’s how it all began... Pete borrowed some cash from his father, purchased a sewing machine, some fabric and foam, then learned how to make garments, for the first few years making almost all of them himself, buying new machines and learning how to operate them as he went along. Now 26 years later Peak UK is one of the world’s leading brands of kayaking wear.
