Kayak Buoyancy Aids

Kayak Buoyancy Aids

Kayaking and canoeing are amongst the most popular water activities, and if you enjoy participating in such activities, it is essential that you remain protected and have a buoyancy aid that can meet the demands required. This is why buoyancy aids for kayaking have low profile designs that offer maximum freedom of movement, so you can perform at your peak.

Best buoyancy aid for kayaking

The best buoyancy aid for kayaking is Crewsaver Pro CZ 50N Buoyancy Aid - owing to its unique body shaping foam that adapts to the shape of your body, providing a custom fit and unrestricted comfort. On the rear is a breathable airflow mesh back panel, reducing heat build up and providing greater comfort. The buoyancy aid is also available in a 'Side Zip' variation.

Please note that kayak buoyancy aids are not to be confused with life jackets. While life jackets are worn by people who are unable to swim at all, buoyancy aids can keep you afloat whilst still allowing a full range of movement. This makes the product ideal for both slow water and fast water kayaking, where swimming may be necessary in case of capsize.

Life Jacket or Buoyancy Aid for Kayaking

In some cases, a life jacket may be more suitable for kayaking than a buoyancy aid. If you're kayaking in an area where assistance may not be close by or are a weak swimmer, a life jacket will keep your head above water should you fall into the water - whereas a buoyancy aid will only provide limited support and will require you to help keep yourself afloat.

Out of all inflation options, a manual life jacket may be most suitable as this will only inflate when you manually pull the toggle - so if you fall in but aren't in danger, the life jacket will not inflate, unlike an automatic life jacket which will inflate the moment you fall in.
