The HO Boys Youth Pursuit: A high-performance life jacket for groms. Dual-certified by Transport Canada and the USCG. Featuring a comfortable neoprene shell and segmented foam for mobility. The safest choice for young riders on Okanagan Lake. Read more.
The Boys Youth Pursuit is for the Youth Rider (50-90 lbs) who needs a high-quality, reliable life jacket that meets all local regulations. It is Dual Certified (Transport Canada & USCGA Approved), making it the legal and safe choice for all activities in Vernon, from tubing on Kal Lake to learning to wakesurf. If your kid is outgrowing child sizes, this performance youth cut is the perfect upgrade.
The HO Boys Youth Pursuit is designed to keep kids safe while encouraging them to push their limits. Unlike stiff, "box-style" nylon vests, the Pursuit features a neoprene exterior and a segmented foam core. This allows the vest to flex and move with the rider, making it much easier for kids to swim, climb back onto the boat, or get into a deep-water start position.
Safety is the priority at Attridge, and the Pursuit delivers with high-visibility graphics and a secure dual-buckle and zipper closure system. The internal foam is strategically placed to keep the rider’s head above water, providing parents with peace of mind while the groms are busy having the best summer of their lives on Okanagan Lake.
Dual Certified: Fully approved by Transport Canada and the U.S. Coast Guard—legal for use on all Canadian and US waterways.
Neoprene Outer Shell: Soft, durable, and quick-drying material that prevents the "rash" often caused by cheaper nylon vests.
Segmented Foam Panels: Independent foam sections that allow the vest to wrap comfortably around a youth's torso.
Dual Hidden Belts: Two adjustable buckles tucked behind the neoprene to prevent snagging and provide a clean, professional look.
Superior Drainage: Designed to shed water quickly, keeping the vest lightweight even after a long swim.
⚡ THE ATTRIDGE FIT TIP: SNUG IS RIGHT
For kids, a proper fit is a safety requirement. A life jacket that is too big will float up over their face in the water.
The Girdle Fit: You should have to "suck it in" to get the zipper started. It should feel like a tight girdle.
The 10% Rule: Neoprene expands roughly 10% when wet. That "slightly too tight" feeling in the shop translates to a perfect, secure fit once you hit the lake.
Legal Check: This is a Transport Canada Approved life jacket. It is a legal life-saving device for all residents and activities on BC waters.
