You can certainly see the Greenjacket\u2019s DNA. But the clam shell pocket has been replaced with a zipped side entry pocket. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have seen previous images of this PFD some while ago so it is great to see it being released. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whitewater athletes continue to progress the sport on larger volumes and higher flows. With 22 lbs of flotation sculpted into Astral’s industry leading FoamTectonics\u2122\ufe0f architecture, the Indus\u2122\ufe0f is the world’s first freestyle-inspired high float life jacket. That\u2019s a 33% increase in flotation over the legendary GreenJacket\u2122\ufe0f for those drawn to big water.<\/p>\nAstral<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
