Originally developed for Palm expedition whitewater kayakers, the Rescue Extrem is the most comfortable rescue PFD available. Its low profile makes it ideal for being active on and around water, including getting to remote emergency scenarios. Wrap around Flex-Fit foam, side release opening and clamshell pocket, it’s a low profile, high float design that water rescue trainers and technicians all choose.
The updated Rescue Extrem design features a unique chest harness system, following findings from Palm sponsored research to improve PFD safety – adjustable in length for different user sizes, the patented UCLan harness system is designed so the harness always releases.
The Rescue Extrem PFD uses the best single sheet foam flotation, heavy-duty abrasion resistant nylon Cordura® shell fabric, and high quality nylon webbing. All Palm PFDs go beyond the standards of ISO 12402-5 and 6 (equipment for special purpose). Our shoulder straps are tested to 3.2 kN; achieved by sewing the webbing in a continuous failsafe loop into the Palm 3D waist belt.
Our resources for users include straightforward maintenance guides, certificates of conformity, material composition and location of manufacture. Built to last, Palm Rescue PFDs carry a maximum 10-year lifespan.
At Palm we believe in making high quality, long-lasting gear.
