Sandiline Fobos ICF: A top-of-the-line slalom vest with ICF certification and a thickness of just 20 mm
Sandiline Fobos: A racing vest with minimal volume
The new Sandiline Fobos life jacket was designed with a single goal in mind—to provide whitewater slalom competitors with complete freedom of movement, maximum aerodynamics, and zero restriction during challenging maneuvers through the gates. It complies with the strict regulations of the International Canoe Federation (ICF) as well as the ISO 12402-5 standard for flotation devices.
Ultra-compact 20-mm profile and breathable Airprene
Innovative materials and construction techniques place this vest in a league of their own:
- Extremely slim design (20 mm): With a thickness of just 20 mm at both the front and back, it is the thinnest vest on the market and fits the body perfectly.
- Airprene material: The highly breathable and comfortable neoprene material ensures excellent ventilation and sweat wicking during intense athletic activity.
- QuickDry construction: Special drainage holes and materials help the vest dry faster, which you'll appreciate during repeated rides throughout the race day.
Automatic straps, StrapPocket, and FobosHandle
The vest is literally packed with smart features designed for racing:
- Self-adjusting shoulder straps: Once you pull the vest down, the straps automatically adjust for a perfect fit without any delay.
- 4-point adjustment and StrapPocket: Four adjustable straps allow for a precise fit, and you can tuck the excess ends into the special StrapPocket pockets so they don't flap around while you're riding.
- FobosHandle: A special handle designed to allow for easy and quick removal of the front floating section from the gunwale in an emergency.
What is this vest ideal for?
Thanks to its specialized design, this vest is intended for:
- Kayak and Canoe Slalom (K1, C1, C2): Maximum performance, slim profile, and ICF certification.
- Speed and Whitewater Training: Minimal water resistance, excellent breathability, and a snug fit.
