Impact and Flotation Vests for Foiling and Watersports
Impact and flotation vests help protect your torso and add buoyancy support during wing foiling, surf foiling, wake, kite, SUP and general watersports sessions. Foiling can involve high-speed crashes and contact with the board, mast or foil, so a well-fitted vest is a smart addition for both beginners and advanced riders.
If you are learning to wing foil in gusty NZ conditions, pair your vest with a stable board from the foilboards range and the right wind wing from the wings and parawings collection. Surf and prone riders should also consider impact protection when using surf foil boards, especially in waves, shallow water or busy line-ups.
Impact vests are not always the same as certified life jackets or PFDs. Check each product description carefully and choose a vest that suits your sport, fit, buoyancy needs and any local safety requirements.
