Will the glove wrist seal worn on top of the drysuit gasket(a little loose) make it waterproof for whitewater kayak
Drygloves with Integrated Seal
Will the glove's wrist seal worn on top of the drysuit gasket (it's a little loose) make it waterproof for whitewater kayaking? Or will the glove's gasket "detach" from the the drysuit's gasket during paddling or falling off making it not waterproof? Wondering if I don't need to redo my drysuit's gasget bc it's new.

If there are no channels and the drysuit is lying perfectly flat when attached to the Drygloves, it will remain waterproof. However, since arm movement while paddling often creates small gaps or channels, water can seep in, compromising the waterproof seal. To ensure the best performance with Drygloves, our best recommendation is to have the suit’s gasket adjusted so it fits snugly around your wrist, preventing leaks and maintaining optimal waterproof protection during use.
