Had a hard time keeping the vapor on, came off almost every crash. Love the JP A-10.

dakid 04-15-2007 8:33 PM

my old ones were the same way. new ones don't come off.

i love my vapor i have the year before it whent glideskin. i plan on getting a new one because i have lost a few lbs since i got the vest. feels just like a t shirt

I ride for Helium, there great!

i cant see myself fitting into one of those oneill vests. i had a throttle and it was nice just too bulky. but the new ones look so small. i got a jetpilot baller now. very comfy. <BR> <BR>As far as handles, proline lg. Buddy got me to try it and i must say it is nice. As far as floating it does a lil bit (sorry, another thread reminded me of this). Just the actual part you hold floats. the rest of the handle goes under.

i want the helium prom night... do you really need to wear a CGA vest if your suppose to ..i mean have never been stopped while i have been riding

The fuzz checks us every once in a while. I like the jet pilot A-10. It looks killer and is really comfortable as well.

denverd1 04-17-2007 7:38 AM

I'm lookin at a gooru. not super bouyant, any other cons?

woohoo 04-17-2007 11:32 AM

I have the Helium Team handle, I like it alot and a Jetpilot Core vest, that is sweet.

stepintoliquid 04-17-2007 12:10 PM
