Palm FXr life jacket

175,00 

Excellently equipped slip-on vest for whitewater II to V. The simple design and comfort of the FX is continued and the vest is upgraded with a recovery belt as well as a breast pocket and knife pocket. The result is one of the most versatile whitewater vests on the market.

Delivery time: 1-3 days

The Palm FXr is a universal whitewater life jacket that meets all requirements. The life jacket is put on over the head and can be easily tightened with two straps on the stomach. The shoulder straps are tightened with aluminum buckles. The shoulder straps are sewn to the hip straps and can withstand loads of up to 320 kg. The life jacket's buoyancy chambers are very low, allowing maximum freedom of movement around the shoulders.

In addition to snacks, carabiners and slings fit into the large breast pocket with a flap opening. The rescue knife also fits in a small pocket above it. The rescue strap can be adjusted to the right size with the UCLan system without shortening the strap. A plastic clamp buckle for the panic trigger and an aluminum friction buckle ensure the necessary safety even in an emergency. Two slotted D-rings allow the Cowstail to be attached.

1979: the Somerset coast. In a small shed with a leaking tin roof stood a hard-working figure covered in a fine layer of fiberglass dust. It was Andy Knight, a man who wanted better equipment for paddling and decided to make it himself. The sign on the door said 'Palm Glass Fiber Moldings Ltd'. Just a few steps from the shed, Andy can still be found working on something new. The shed is a little bigger now, and there are a lot more characters toiling away, but Andy and the team at Palm still work with the same determination and goal: making gear for paddlers. Palm Equipment International Ltd. is based in Somerset, England. From here we supply clothing brand Palm, kayaks from Dagger, Islander and Wilderness Systems and canoes from Mad River Canoe - everything you need to take to the water. Do you need a Palm Equipment product that we don't have in the online catalogue? Get in touch! We can organize many products on request!
