I've used the Simms Top for the last few months. The large pocket in front will fill with water. The addition of grommets at the base of the pocket will let it drain but would also allow water into it so its a double edged sword depending on what you store in the pocket.

What these lightweight tops really need is a hood - I can't believe Simms or Aquaskinz haven't made a lightweight top with a hood attached. Aquaskinz does sell a separate neoprene hood but its way to warm to use in summer. To there credit Aquaskinz does offer the rampage dry top with a hood but the rampage is also overkill in warm weather.

I feel the first company that offers a lightweight dry splash top with a hood will corner the market. (At least for a while)
