VXP Race PFD Life Jacket - Fluro Orange

Excellent shopping experience.

I used to have a bulky standard vest and it was amazing to see the difference with my comfort and mobility paddling once I started wearing this. The pockets in the front are super convenient for my keys, phone and safety whistle. The hydro pack in the back has led me to be more adventurous going a bit further out since I could keep myself hydrated during the trip. Highly recommend!

The first time I wore my vaikobi PFD was paddling outrigger canoes 9& Canadas West Coast to an island where we did a hike through an old growth rainforest trail. Upon arriving at the island we realized we had lunch and snacks in our dry bags but no backpacks to carry them in. So we all left our PFDs on, stashed our lunches in our nice big vaikobi PFD pockets, and off we went. Bonus… we had water in our vaikobi hydration bladders in the back pockets of our PFDS so we didn’t even need to carry water bottles! Being a cold fall day in Canada, the PFDs also kept us nice and cozy without overheating us while we hiked. Then back to the boats, straight back on the water without changing clothes because we were still cozy and warm in our PFDs after hiking, and then carried on with more paddling. Couldn’t be happier! And lots of room in the front pocket to hold my 2-way handheld radio. Awesome, I’m stoked!

Very comfortable and happy with the hydration aspect of this PFD.
