Those paddling for exploration, adventure, work or simply to have some time out need freedom of movement.

These are all elements paddle sport enthusiasts can expect as standard from a Baltic buoyancy aid. In addition to these comfort features, visibility is also key given the close proximity to the water. All Baltic PFDs have EN/ISO certification and are rated to 50N as a minimum.
