Hiko Saluki K+: ICF-certified kayaking vest for whitewater racing
Hiko Saluki K+: ICF-Certified Racing Vest
The Hiko Saluki K+ kayaking life jacket is specially designed and engineered to meet the demanding requirements of competitors in downriver, slalom, and whitewater disciplines. It is officially approved by the International Canoe Federation (ICF) for all international competitions requiring an approved life jacket as mandatory equipment.
Flexible neoprene shoulder straps and an interconnected strap system
The vest's design emphasizes optimal mobility and tensile strength:
- Maximum range of motion: The anatomical cut and contoured foam ensure that the vest does not restrict torso rotation or paddling motion in any way.
- Double neoprene shoulder straps: They are very soft and flexible, which makes them more comfortable to wear all day long.
- Integrated high-strength strap: It passes through the neoprene shoulder straps and is securely attached to the side adjustment straps on both the front and back panels. This ensures that the vest is securely connected across both shoulders and around the entire body while maintaining maximum flexibility.
ISO 12402-5 and Its Use in Official Races
Security and Regulatory Compliance:
- Standards Met: The life jacket complies with the European standard ISO 12402-5 for flotation devices.
- ICF Certification: Accreditation by the International Canoe Federation guarantees that you can confidently compete in any official domestic or international race while wearing this vest.

Expert advice: The Saluki K+ racing vest is designed with a kayaking-specific cut for a snug fit and maximum freedom of movement in the boat. Before training or racing, tighten the side straps properly so that the internal high-strength system distributes the tension evenly across the neoprene shoulder straps. After each use, rinse the vest in clean fresh water and let it dry in a shaded area.
