"With 150N of air in an emergency, this belt can actually save your life in an emergency, and is light and comfortable to wear. (So comfortable I often find it still on when I go to sit down for a post-paddle coffee with my friends!). You get used to putting it on every time you go out on the water, knowing that if something happened and you were separated from your board, you'd have a chance to survive. Conditions change quickly out there, and you never know what you might come across - it might not even be you who needs to wear it. As a paddleboarder you are in a good position to help others in difficulty on the water too" - Victoria Stuart, PaddleFit Pro Coach and ISA SUP Instructor
