Behold! The Bomb Drytop.

A bomb is any of a range of explosive devices that typically rely on the exothermic chemical reaction of an explosive material to produce an extremely sudden and violent release of energy. When you hit the water wearing a Bomber Gear Long Sleeve Drytop, you will know why professional paddlers worldwide call this drytop The Bomb!


Take the audio tour and explore the features of The Bomb

Designed and built by Bomber Gear, this drytop is the product of more than 15 years of paddling and design by Bomber Gear founder, Rick Franken and world champion paddler Eric Southwick. Armed with the latest advances in water proof materials, Bomber Gear have used some of the most advanced manufacturing techniques known to the industry to produce what has been called “The Wolrd’s Best Drytop”.





It is ergonomically designed and form fitted to perfection, and has a cut that maximizes mobility and reduces the amount of seams in construction.

The Bomb Features

• Toray® 3 ply waterproof breathable fabric
• Volcanic Gasket Protector System™
• Emergency whistle

Cuffs and neck system have been completely redesigned using the old technology of Latex and pushing it to the next level. A lot of the focus and attention in this top went into the neck and wrist gasket covers. Using multiple types of Neoprene and form fitting pattern configuration this aggressive outer cuff accomplishes a seal like no other.



This year we have added Sub-Screen™ to the wrists; a water repellent and abrasion resistant ink that has super stretch and amazing style. The screen seals all the pores in the neoprene making it bone dry to the touch no matter what the white water conditions are.



Waist incorporates a Vault Water Lock Waist Band™. Which is a grip neoprene backed with two lines of defense incorporates a super stretch bungee while the second line equips an anti-bunch double Tab Velcro system that adheres to Velcro compatible neoprene. Provide for a light-weight seal over a large surface area to lock water out.



A new streamlined design incorporating an enhanced ergonomic feel makes the whistle easier to hold

Material is Toray® 3 ply Entrant -HB waterproof breathable fabric. It is a very high end micro-pores laminate, from Japan. Our test has shown unbelievable breathability, with durability without compromising waterproof integrity. This material has proven to be the best fabric for submersible application.

We call it the Volcanic Gasket Protector System™. Bomber is the first to have a latex gasketed dry top with Velcro-less gasket covers. The volcanic gasket protector system was created to eliminate Velcro chaff and enable your neck and wrists full unrestricted, circular movement.



Our double neoprene neck serves as an elasticized self-adjusting neck seal. Includes a quick ID reflective ring bordering the circular gasket cover, as well as ‘born on’ dates for quality assurance. It may also serve as a backup working like a paddle jacket in the unfortunate event of a blown gasket
