Astral Whitewater PFDs Green Jacket Personal Flotation Device

Why We Like The Green Jacket Personal Flotation Device

Astral hit the nail on the head when it created the Astral Green Jacket Personal Flotation Device. This is a PFD for whitewater professionals and professional river rescuers, and it oozes toughness and utilitarian purpose down to the tiniest detail.

Ready for action on the river, the front panel’s large clamshell-style opening holds our rescue rope, while the quick-release harness at the side and tow system on the back pair with the Spectra safety loop for emergency extractions. Plus, the unique Tectonic foam panel fit system uses a static chest panel and a dynamic, floating torso panel to maximize our mobility and keep the PFD comfortable as we paddle.
