The Palm Kaikoura is a top of the range best selling touring PFD that features a Flex Formed foam fit which basically means that the foam comes pre-bent and shaped so it hugs the body and gives the feeling of complete comfort and security. Most of the buoyancy is up front so the Kaikoura rarely interferes with the kind of backrests normally found in touring kayaks.
For open canoeing the Palm Kaikoura is a great addition and gives you bags of range of movement for a whole variety of paddle strokes.

PFD Fit Guide
Chest – Measure horizontally under the armpits, around the fullest part of your chest and shoulder blades.
Weight – Factor in the weight of all the equipment you'll be wearing as well.
PFD Buoyancy Label – A correct fit is more important than choosing the buoyancy category according to their weight. All Palm Buoyancy Aids have buoyancy above the minimum floatation required for CE/ISO certification. PFD weight ranges are printed inside Palm Buoyancy Aids, on the ISO label.
