PFDs PERFECT FOR PADDLING

A Personal Flotation Device is the single most important piece of safety equipment for paddling and Extrasport buoyancy aids offer proven quality and value. Specially designed for kayaking, these PFDs are comfortable, durable and give the freedom of movement which is essential for kayakers. The multi-adjustable shoulder and side straps mean they fit snugly around the body and you can tailor the fit so they can be worn with additional clothing depending on the season.

Extrasport buoyancy aids offer comfort and freedom of movement

Some buoyancy aids are made with inferior interior foam which can compress and degrade over time. Extrasport however never compromise on quality and only use high specification PVC foam inside a Ripstop UV resistant outer cover. These PFDs also come with YKK zips which are easy to fasten and resistant to salt and fresh water corrosion.

The large arm holes keep the bulk of the flotation away from the shoulders and upper chest to give a full range of arm and upper body movement while paddling. On a sunny day if you fancy a dip you can also swim comfortably in them and get back on board a sit-on-top easily. Comfort is also particularly important for youngsters because if a buoyancy aid fits well they will wear it and that’s key to getting them enjoying water activities safely. Junior models come with detachable leg straps to prevent the buoyancy aid riding up when in the water and the attractive red and yellow colour scheme means they are highly visible. The multi-adjustable shoulder and waist straps also allow for close fitting at all stages of growth.

The Extrasport Adult PFD is available in sizes from small to extra large, comes in a stylish red/silver colour and is fitted with 3M reflective safety tape. There is also an adult design in green or silver especially for fishing. With the Extrasport Fishing PFD, the run-resistant, hard wearing Ripstop outer cover is fitted with multiple pockets and Velcro cover tabs for flies and hooks. There is also a special pocket for a VHF radio. Prices are £34.95 for the Extrasport Junior, the Extrasport Adult is £39.95 and the Extrasport Fishing is £44.95.
