P D L RUK 78 A DE THE UK S ULTIMATE ONLINE www.nswatersports.com PADDLESPORT STORE! in association with in association with Palm Meander Women’s PFD www.palmequipment.com By Anne Egan The Meander is Palm’s entry level touring PFD‚ designed to be lightweight‚ slimline‚ and easy to use. A low profile design with a simple‚ secure zip and buckle closure. I found the Palm Meander to be a an excellent entry level touring buoyancy aid. There is plenty of adjustment with the low profile design allowing a full range of movement of the shoulder and arms. The light weight construction adds to the comfort. The Meander has a small internal breast pocket with security ring as well as a much larger front zipped pocket again with internal security ring. It is an attractive looking PFD that overall gives generous amount of movement with a slim profile and at the moment is my choice of PFD, especially when SUPing.
