As recommend by Outside Magazine in their 2012 SUMMER GEAR GUIDE:

"The US Coast Guard officially classifies SUPs as vessels and requires every paddler to have a PFD on board at all times (except when paddling in the surf zone.) By far the best, most low-profile choice is a waistbelt with a deployable PFD by a CO2 cartridge. The MTI Fluid belt pack is one of our favorites."

Since SUP first exploded into the paddling scene MTI has worked to understand the needs of the Standup paddler. Compared to others, the MTI fluid is easier to arm with a single twist and lock cylinder, easier to repack with folding guidelines printed on the bladder, and its positioned in the center of the belt so that it rides high and tight to your body and doesn't flop around - just like a well-designed backpack waistbelt.

Fully USGC approved, the FLUID by MTI is the choice of experienced and discerning SUP paddlers because they understand that:

1. Why would I want to bungee-cord a cheap life jacket to my expensive board?

2. Yes, I use a leash. But leashes can break. Boards get away from you. And I am grateful to have my life jacket ON ME and not strapped to my board when it's over a mile downwind away from me.

3. It's smart to plan for the unexpected. I like to protect my most valuable asset... and that's ME!

4. I want the best. And that's the MTI Fluid.
