Zhik Racecut PFD – Performance Meets Comfort on the Water

In racing, comfort equals focus—and focus wins races. That’s exactly why the Zhik Performance Racecut PFD is a favorite among performance sailors, foilers, and paddlers who need a lightweight, low-profile buoyancy aid that doesn’t get in the way when it’s go time.

Available now at BoatCrewGear.com, the Racecut PFD offers unrestricted movement, fast drainage, and a race-ready fit that serious water athletes demand.

What Makes the Zhik Performance Racecut PFD Stand Out?

This isn’t your bulky weekend lifejacket. The Zhik Performance Racecut PFD is designed with minimal bulk, wide-open arm holes, and a shortened torso cut, perfect for wearing with trapeze or hiking harnesses, and ideal for foiling, skiff sailing, and paddling.

Constructed from durable 500D nylon outer fabric, with soft, low-profile foam panels inside, the Racecut PFD delivers 50N buoyancy - ISO12402-5 Certification (approved for Australian racing), without sacrificing comfort or mobility.
