BackTow™ Fitted: The only inflatable PFD harness with BackTow™ technology. This patented technology is designed for MOB (man-overboard) situations when the wearer is still tethered to a vessel.

After inflation, the wearer pulls the large BackTow™ handle, positioning them face-up for safe towing alongside the vessel. BackTow reduces the risk of injury during recovery by providing a strong point. A halyard can be clipped to any part of the BackTow strap, allowing even a smaller person to recover a MOB using a winch.

Patent number: 2782646

Automatic Firing Head: The ProSensor Elite Inflation System works by using a water-activated mechanism. A compressed paper capsule dissolves when wet, releasing a spring that fires the CO2 cylinder to inflate the PFD. The design prevents accidental inflation due to spray or rain.

Size: Suitable for adult chest sizes 68cm-144cm.

Certifications and Approvals: TeamO inflatable PFDs are ISO12402-3 approved but do not have Transport Canada or US Coast Guard approval. Check local laws for requirements. Transport Canada requires a lifejacket or PFD for each person on a watercraft.
