Touring made easy - Yak Vent Buoyancy Aid

Perfect for serious paddling and for Touring the 70N Vent Buoyancy Aid is designed with mobility in mind. The Vent combines style with comfort and safety when on and around the water. And when combined with one of Yak's new range of Touring Cags it creates a complete system for extreme comfort.

The Vent doesn’t restrict your range of movement whilst paddling thanks to its performance cut body. Supersoft PVC Foam provides 70 Newtons of buoyancy. These are set inside separate front and back panels adding extra comfort and warmth.

The sides are made of stretch mesh to allow for more flexibility and feature two adjustable belts with quick release buckles which provide a secure fit and ensure the buoyancy aid can fit all body shapes.

The needs of every paddler are taken into account with the Vent's features. The durable outer cover made of ripstop fabric, ensures the Vent can easily withstand the rigors of high activity paddling and touring. Two expanding front pockets give ample stowage for essential equipment and have drain holes and attachment clips. An extra secure mesh pocket can be found just behind the zip and a retro-fit hydration pack, such as Yak’s Oasis can be accommodated onto the back of the Buoyancy Aid via the loops provided.

The full zipped front makes it easy to put on and the adjustable Neoprene waistband with buckle prevents it from riding up during use. Fully adjustable Neoprene shoulder straps are padded for even more comfort.

Additional features include a chest mounted four way lash tab and retro-reflective piping on the front pockets and shoulders for increased visibility.

The Vent is available in 3 sizes S/M, M/L and XL and two colours Orange/Black and Blue/Black.
