Integrated Throwbags
At Astral we believe that paddlers should carry a rope at all times. Make this your motto with our integrated Throwbags that fit in or behind the front pocket of many of our jackets. Choose from Polypro for basic swimmer rescues or Spectra where more complex mechanical advantage systems are required. These bags are always with you, even if your boat is not. Working Load: Polypro 550 lbs, Spectra 1800 lbs

Knife Park

Quick access lash tab is sufficient for attachment of a knife or a VHF Radio.

Cargo Pockets

Astral pockets are bigger on the inside than they appear. With clever baffles and gussets, we keep the profile of pockets low when not used, but they expand for your apples.

Flotection

The foam wraps around the sides of your torso and also along your spine. In our Rescue models it's further enhanced with a thin layer of plastic.

Tectonic

Separate foam panels for upper and lower torso allow the greateast mobility ever in a PFD.

Women

Shorter Torso Height, sculpted chest, and sculpted foam makes a great fit for women.

Rope Ready

"Carry a rope at all times". Astral makes this most basic safety rule an easy reality by designing pockets specifically for our rope systems.

Side Entry

Side buckles provide the options of either donning this jacket as a pullover or entering through the side, especially helpful if you are wearing winter layers.

Torso length adjustment

Customize the torso length of your PFD while simultaneously reducing ride-up with our front adjustment straps.

Back Band

Of 7 inch elastic for mid-back comfort.

A perfect blend of fit and technology; the Bella has been styled just for women. Freestyle Tectonics allow the outer panel to move freely with the upper body, as the inner panel stays anchored in place.
