TAYLOR Slalom Buoys
Taylor Slalom Buoys: Precision Course Marking on the Water
Setting up a proper slalom course demands markers you can count on — ones that stay visible, hold their position, and survive season after season of boat wakes, UV exposure, and constant handling. Taylor Made Products, a brand with over 100 years of marine industry experience, brings that same commitment to durability and performance to its line of slalom buoys.
Built to AWSA Specifications
Made from PVC, these lightweight but durable inflatable buoys mark your slalom course in accordance with AWSA specifications (American Water Ski Association). Whether you're running a casual backwater course or preparing for a more structured event, knowing your markers conform to official standards takes the guesswork out of setup and keeps everyone on the same page.
Practical Features for On-Water Use
Taylor Made slalom buoys are competition-sized with a 9" diameter, designed for marking slalom courses, swimming areas, hazards, and more. Several thoughtful design details make them especially practical for regular use:
- Molded-in anchor loop: Each buoy features a moulded-in loop for secure attachment to an anchor line, ensuring stability and reliability on the water.
- Adjustable inflation: Each buoy contains an inflation valve for air pressure adjustment , letting you fine-tune firmness to suit conditions.
- Approximate buoyancy of 13 lbs: Approximate buoyancy is 13 lbs , providing reliable float even under load from an anchor line.
- Easy transport and storage: Supplied deflated for easy transport and storage, these buoys are sold individually, offering flexibility to meet your specific needs.
Color-Coded Visibility
A properly laid slalom course relies on crisp color distinctions that skiers can read at speed. Available in three vibrant colours — yellow, green, and red — Taylor Made slalom buoys make it simple to create clear, visible markers. The bright, distinct hues ensure skiers and spotters alike can track gate pairs and turn buoys without confusion, even in challenging light conditions.
