    Good flotation, but hard to buckle

        Comments about NRS Big Water V Youth PFD:

        Provides good flotation for kids in whitewater, but is very hard for them to buckle by themselves. Worth it though to make sure they are safe in level 3+ whitewater.

          Comments about NRS Big Water V Youth PFD:

          When kids go in the water, the jacket has them popping up like daisies very quickly. The floatation of the jacket gives the kids confidence and calms their fear.

              Comments about NRS Big Water V Youth PFD:

              My kids would love to have a pocket on this jacket. What kid doesn't have a collection of something on the river??? The 2 I have from last year are very hard to snap closed. This new one closes without a problem. The fabric is very durable and the foam is fairly moldable for their small bodies. The only improvement -ADD A POCKET or two!

                Used this on a youth that was a first time paddler. He was comfortable in it paddleing and playing. With the adjustable straps he can use it for many years to come.
