Great for flat or slow water adventures
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
The Airbelt is a great way to enjoy time on flat or slow water in a safe yet enjoyable manner, providing floatation on demand when you might need it, but eliminating the bulk and warmth of a traditional PFD. Worn around the waist like a fanny / front pack, its low profile and hardly noticeable when worn for SUP or other slow water adventures. But unlike that traditional PFD attached to the bow of your board or in the front of your boat, this one is with you at all times in case something takes a sudden turn and you need that floatation. A quick an easy pull on the inflation tab and the co2 canister fills the airbladder with enough floatation to allow you to safely stay on top of the water and get to safer ground. I've personally watched a lot of SUP enthusiasts become separated from their boards & pfds when a sudden burst of wind comes up, and this is the perfect tool for those situations to remain safe and having fun on the water. It even can travel well as the co2 canisters are universal, so pack it in your travel bag for that next destination SUP trip or other. Mark - Astral Rep
