Why this petition matters

Started by Gary Schomberger

High float rafting spefic PFDs that are comfortable and make you look cool!

Whitewater PFDs in the US have a minimum requirement of 15.5lbs (70n) of floatation.

In recent years the industry has moved closer and closer to the minimum with one of the most popular vests for professionals and recreationists alike now only sporting 16.5lbs (73.5n) of floatation. Add in a couple of pounds of standard metal rescue equipment and you can see where we are headed...

This is a petition to show the demand and support for PFDs that help us all sit higher in the water when we take a swim while not looking like a commercial guest on their first trip down the river.
