Life jacket from solid foam material with high-cut back, which matches perfectly well with the backrest and spray skirts in packrafts and other boats!
Construction
Due to the highly positioned foam on the back (pure mesh in the lumbar region), it is possible to use the life jacket in boats with a high backrest (typically packrafts) without restricting the sitting position.
The breathable construction of mesh fabric inside (see photo) ensures good air circulation during warm days. In addition, the shape of the foam adapts to the body what ensures a comfortable wearing.
Use
Although originally designed for touring, the tear-resistant Codura fabric, the generous buoyancy and a strong cushion allows the use in mild white water! However, it has no impact protection on the back part due to the design.
For a solid vest, the Yak Highback 60 also has a reasonable weight of 580g (M). Fully adjustable to ensure a good body fit, what it makes a good alternative for packrafting on moving water!
