This pro vest offers great comfort full speed or when falling into the water for all serious sailors (including kite-surfers, wind-surfers and stand up paddlers).

Fitting close to the body, its neoprene grip strips, on the inside, grip your wetsuit and prevent the vest moving up .

It ensures good freedom of movement thanks to its wide arm openings, and adjusts to the waist with 2 straps.

This vest is designed to be compatible with trapeze harnesses, it is also compatible kitesurf and windsurf harnesses. The buoyancy is distributed over the upper part of the panel, which is denser.

Thermoformed front and back panels allow good shock protection and flex for maximum freedom of movement and a very slim fit. The bottom is designed to be compatible with a harness.
