Mustang Survival Khimera Dual Flotation PFD

The Khimera uses a hybrid design that combines 7.5 lbs of inherently buoyant foam with an inflatable cell that adds another 13 lbs of buoyancy when triggered. This gives you a slim, low-profile fit while paddling, but provides full, high-buoyancy support when you need it most.

Yes, it is approved to the Harmonized Level 70 standard for both the USA and Canada. With a total of 20.5 lbs of buoyancy when fully inflated, it meets the necessary safety requirements for most paddle sports, including surfski and outrigger canoeing.

Re-arming is straightforward. You simply squeeze the air out of the inflation cell, replace the spent CO2 cylinder with a new one, and you are ready to go. You will need to purchase the Re-arm Kit G (Model # MA7116) for replacements.

Yes, it features a front storage pocket that is perfect for small essentials like energy snacks or a phone. Additionally, there are dedicated shoulder attachment points designed to secure gear like a safety knife or a strobe light.

Not at all. The overhead entry is designed for a secure, close-to-body fit, and the adjustable shoulder and waist straps allow you to customize the tension so it feels snug and comfortable without restricting your movement while paddling.

If the CO2 inflation fails, you can manually inflate the cell using the integrated oral tube. This ensures you still have access to the full buoyancy capacity even if the mechanical system is not used.
