Exclusive BackTow™ Technology:

TeamO PFDs are the only inflatable harnesses on the market featuring the revolutionary BackTow™ Technology. This patented system is designed to protect the wearer in man-overboard (MOB) situations where they are still tethered to the vessel.

After inflation, the wearer manually pulls the large BackTow™ handle located on the right-hand lung, positioning them in a face-up seated position in the water. This allows for safe towing alongside the vessel.

The BackTow™ strap serves as a strong recovery point, reducing the risk of injury. A halyard can be clipped to any part of the BackTow™ strap, enabling even a small person to recover a MOB using a winch.

TeamO PFDs: Merging safety, innovation, and comfort, now accessible in North America.
