The Hyperlite Youth Indy (64-88 lbs): A premium, dual-certified life jacket for active groms. Featuring a soft neoprene shell and anatomical flex panels. The gold standard for safety and performance for young riders on Okanagan Lake. Read more.
The Youth Indy Large is for the active grom (64-88 lbs) who is ready to move beyond the basics. It is Dual Certified (Transport Canada & USCGA Approved), making it the legal and safe requirement for everything from tubing to technical wakesurf sets in Vernon. If your kid is spending hours in the water and needs a vest that won't "ride up" or restrict their reach while grabbing the rope on Okanagan Lake, this is the fit.
As kids get bigger and more confident, their gear needs to keep up. The Youth Indy Large is built with Hyperlite’s premium neoprene shell, which is softer and more durable than standard nylon vests. It eliminates the "neck rub" and chafing that can end a boat day early, while the segmented foam core allows for a full range of motion. This means whether they are carving or climbing back into the boat at Kal Lake, the vest moves with them.
Safety is paramount, and the Indy delivers with a secure zip-and-buckle closure system that keeps the vest locked down during high-speed falls. The anatomical panels ensure the buoyancy is distributed perfectly, keeping the rider’s head high in the water. With its quick-dry technology and lightweight feel, it’s a vest that keeps groms happy and parents relaxed.
