Mustang Survival's Kids' Life Jackets Are Now Built for the Wake, Not Just the Dock

· 1 min read

Mustang Survival has redesigned its Rev line of children's personal flotation devices to keep pace with a season that increasingly includes tubing and wakeboarding, not just a seat on the boat. The line now carries a towable, water-sports rating, a change that matters to any family running a ski boat off the back of the dock this time of year. A new dual-buckle closure and segmented foam construction are meant to keep the fit secure through a fall and a tow rope's tug, and the company built the update without adding PFAS to the material. It is the kind of gear refinement that owners with kids aboard tend to notice before anyone else does.

With reporting from Yachting.
