Exclusive BackTow™ Technology:

TeamO’s PFDs stand out as the only inflatable harnesses on the market equipped with the innovative BackTow™ Technology. This patented system is specifically designed to protect the wearer during a man-overboard (MOB) situation while still tethered to the vessel.

Upon inflation, the wearer can manually activate the large BackTow™ handle, located on the top of the right-hand lung. This action repositions the wearer into a face-up seated position in the water, allowing for safe towing alongside the vessel.

The BackTow™ strap acts as a strong attachment point, significantly reducing the risk of injury during recovery. With the help of a winch, even a smaller person can effectively recover a MOB wearing a TeamO PFD.

TeamO PFDs: The ultimate combination of safety, innovation, and comfort for every boater and sailor.
