Hydraulics Pro Series

Technical details aside bouyancy aids are really all about fit. We could rave on for hours about how good we think ours are, but you should just go try one on and decide for yourself.

The Pro-Series are available from april 2011.

Ocean Pro

500D Cordura outer, 200D Nylon inner.

Floatation meets or exceeds USCG minimum 15.5lbs (depending on size).
Floatation exceeds NZS minimum of 5.4kgf (all sizes).

Designed for the professional sea kayak guide the Ocean Pro is designed to carry all the essentials. It has two large front pockets with organisers for sunnies, food, sunscreen, phone, whistle, knife kitchen sink. We also added a removable VHF holster for hands free operation of your radio.

On the back of the Ocean Pro is an integrated hydration system with a 1.5l water bladder installed, the bladder pocket has a strobe light attachment point on the flap and a mesh pocket at the base to stash your long towline.

The Ocean Pro comes with a 4m quick release towline which packs away into it’s own storage pouch.

River Pro

500D Cordura outer, 200D Nylon inner
Floatation meets or exceeds USCG minimum 15.5lbs (depending on size).
Floatation exceeds NZS minimum of 5.4kgf (all sizes).

The low cut and fantastic fit of this PFD is making it a favourite with professional riverpeople all over the world. Young Guns, Brooks Baldwin says of his, "It's like someone is hugging you." A nice feeling to have on the river for sure.

The front pocket, as big as ever, is now made from Keprotec (stretchy Kevlar), so raft guides will have to work a little harder to rip it.

It still fits like a glove ("system X"), still has padded shoulders for boat carrying comfort and still has bar tacks at all the major stress points (and many of the not so major ones).

It still has a 38mm towline with a Fixloc buckle and a stainless ring.

Colors Red/Black. Mango,Black, Green/Black

Race Pro

400D Nyon outer, 200D Nylon inner
Floatation meets or exceeds USCG minimum 15.5lbs (depending on size)
Floatation exceeds NZS minimum of 5.4kgf (all sizes).

Even though we have made this PFD 20% lighter, we have retained all the features that make this PFD the choice of Nike and Balance Bar/Vector AR teams, and 2005 C2C champs Richard Usher and Kristina Anglem.

The drink system holds a 2.5litre bladder and keeps the tube at the tip of your exhausted tongue. It is easy to get on (over your head) and fast to get off (side zip) and in between you will hardly notice you are wearing it. The bottle pocket on the front has a second tube guide so you can dine in style, electrolyte, fluid, electrolyte, fluid... ad infinitum. The "system X" adjustment system prevents the weight of the drink bladder from pulling the PFD backwards and choking you in the process... nice.

It comes equipped with a whistle and a handy dandy knife pocket with a lash tab ( mandatory gear on most races) as well as a strobe light clip point on the back. The piping is reflective and the mesh front pockets hold food, and plenty of it.

Colours: Mango/Black, Red/Black
