A simple, yet fully-featured rescue PFD for whitewater paddlers and emerging instructors.

When it's time to get serious about your whitewater paddling, finding a rescue PFD that has everything you need — without feeling bulky, or overly complicated — can be tough. That’s where the Palm FXr comes in. This is a full-featured rescue vest with a quick-release harness and all the key safety features — but with a clean, lightweight, over-the-head design that makes it feel simple and wearable for any paddling mission. It’s built with the same aircraft-grade aluminium hardware as Palm’s top-tier models, and includes a massive utility-draw front pocket for storing rescue gear or snacks. At Canterbury Kayaking, we recommend the FXr to students and whitewater paddlers who wants a dependable, full-featured PFD that doesn’t feel overkill on your local runs — but will have your back when it matters.
