Less is moreSometimes less is more. The Alpha is our minimalist PFD‚ trimmed down to the essentials‚ easy to adjust and cleanly styled. Featuring the same ripstop shell material as the Fuse jacket‚ with 60 N of floatation‚ and our 3D waist to hold it firmly in place. ICF accredited for use in slalom competition‚ it's just as smooth competing on whitewater as it is cruising around the bay on your SUP.

Technology

• I am certified
These PFDs pass ISO 12402-5 (water sports) and ISO 12402-6 (paddlesport) standards. The majority of our PFDs have up to 20% more buoyancy than the ISO/CE standard and our whitewater models have up to 40% more buoyancy than the 50 N required. Palm were the first to make PFDs to these ISO standards.

• Comfort Fit
Layered sheets of soft foam conform to your body shape keeping the PFD comfortable and secure.

• 3D anti ride-up waistbelt
A grippy rubber finish prevents your PFD from riding up when in use, and the adjustable waistbelt is positioned on the inside of the buoyancy foam panel for full contact around your waist.

• ICF registered
This PFD meets the requirements for and is registered with the International Canoe Federation for canoe slalom racing.
