A favorite of river runners on big Western Rivers like the Grand and the Rogue!
The Big Buoy is just like its name – lots of flotation for big water, this 26 pounder offers a deceptively slim fit for having all that buoyancy. The Big Buoy colors have been updated for 2012, featuring a cyber-yellow with red pocket, making it extremely visible in the froth and boil of rapids. Great for general whitewater usage as well as for professional guides.

- 500 D Cordura®Plus shell
- Adjustable shoulders, 8 points of adjustable fit
