Product Details

FOAM tectonics
We are proud to introduce a new line of PFD’s using Foam Tectonics. The Willis™, Bella™ and Greenjacket™ represent the new generation of technical PFD’s. Great for both men & women. Ideal for Performance Kayaking & Sailing.
When paddling, the inner plate remains perfectly in place while the outer plate is free to move around with the paddler’s torso. This allows unhindered range of motion without pulling up on the core of the vest.
As the outer plate conforms with the user’s movement, it also conforms with different body types. The accommodating upper-front make any of these jackets a perfect fit for women (the Bella is styled specifically for women).

The Greenjacket introduces a new level of comfort and fit into the world of whitewater rescue, making a perfect PFD for any rescue, guiding or expedition setting.

Features:
Freestyle Tectonics allow outer front panel to move freely
with upper body as the inner panel stays anchored in place.
Great fit for women too.

A glimpse inside the ASTRAL factory and a preview of the Greenjacket LE#2

Friday, December 4th, 2009

This has been a fun and busy week for the ASTRAL crew. The factory has been finishing up the first of the new Greenjacket LE1’s as well making some dog beds from our scrap raw materials. Meanwhile, the office team has been working on the design of LE#2. Here’s a sneak peek at what we have been up to this week:

The embroidery machine is one of the most interesting tools here at the factory, it gets a lot of use especially when we make Limited Edition Greenjackets.

Here’s Theresa constructing the front panel on the LE1 with a smile.

Jesus is filling some dog bed inserts with recycled lifejacket foam. These dog beds are an alternative to the landfill and give your hound a comfy pad after a long day on the water.
