Stay safe, stay mobile, and stay confident on the water with the Khimera Dual Flotation PFD, a lightweight and low-profile life vest designed for paddling, kayaking, canoeing, and stand-up paddleboarding adventures. This innovative hybrid life jacket combines inflatable and foam flotation for the ultimate in safety, comfort, and performance—making it a top choice for serious paddlers and recreational boaters alike.
The overhead entry design provides a snug, secure fit, while the dual flotation system blends 7.5 lbs of foam buoyancy with an additional 13 lbs of inflatable support when activated—offering a total of 20.5 lbs of buoyancy. Whether you're navigating whitewater or enjoying a calm lake, this paddle life vest offers superior mobility, comfort, and re-entry support. Adjustable shoulder and waist straps help dial in a close-to-body fit, allowing you to move freely during high-output activity.
A zippered front storage pocket makes it easy to stash small essentials like energy chews, your phone, or an extra CO2 cylinder. Shoulder attachment points are ideal for clipping on a safety knife, strobe light, or other paddling gear, and reflective patches on the shoulders improve visibility in low-light conditions for enhanced safety. The durable, high-quality materials stand up to heavy use in freshwater or saltwater environments.
Re-arming the PFD is quick and easy—just release the air from the inflation cell and insert a fresh CO2 cartridge. Perfect for racers, adventure paddlers, or anyone seeking a slim, minimalist profile without sacrificing safety.
