HIKO Swift: A versatile, lightweight vest with ICF certification for racing and hiking
ICF Certification for Whitewater Racing
The HIKO Swift is the top choice for anyone looking for a lightweight, unrestricted buoyancy aid. The vest is proudly Certified by the International Canoe Federation (ICF) for official whitewater racing. It meets all required standards and specifications, making it a reliable companion for water slalom, whitewater downriver racing, and training runs.
Comfortable tightening and adjustment to fit your body
The vest is ergonomically designed to provide maximum freedom of movement while also offering a perfect fit:
- Shoulder straps: They feature a well-designed and comfortable adjustment system for setting the vest's height.
- Side compression: Two side straps allow the harness to fit snugly around the torso.
- Elastic waistband: It ensures that the vest fits almost all body types perfectly and stays securely in place with every paddle stroke.
A special option for younger students (size XS)
According to the rules, competitors in whitewater slalom and downriver racing must wear a life jacket with a minimum buoyancy rating of 6.12 kg (at least 4 kg in the younger youth category). The HIKO Swift life jacket perfectly meets these requirements (manufactured in accordance with ISO 12402-5). This allows younger students to compete in this vest (size XS) at any race as part of the ČSK DV.
What is this vest ideal for?
Thanks to its versatility and light weight, the vest is suitable for:
- Slalom and downhill racers: ICF certification and compliance with regulations for both youth and adults.
- Water Sports Rentals and Courses: Durability, a versatile design, and easy adjustment to fit different users.
- Hiking and Recreational Paddling: Lightweight and comfortable for all-day trips on both calm and fast-flowing rivers.

Expert advice: If you’re choosing a vest for a young competitor in the younger youth category, select size XS, which meets all the requirements and certifications for competing in ČSK DV races. For adult users, we recommend evenly tightening the shoulder and side straps after putting on the vest so that it fits snugly around the torso but does not restrict deep breathing or arm rotation. After using the vest in saltwater or murky water, be sure to rinse it with clean water.
