VAIKOBI V4 OCEAN RACING PFD - GREEN

The V4 Ocean Racing PFD is built for paddlers who demand more from their lifejacket. More storage, smarter strap management, enhanced reflective visibility, and an aerodynamic profile that stays out of your way from the first stroke to the last. Light enough to forget you're wearing it, practical enough to carry everything you need for a serious session. From dawn training to race day, this is the PFD built to go the distance.
