Does anyone know of a vendor that has this vest in stock? I've only been able to find it at one place and it was backordered until May. Thanks for the help.<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/65919/429037.jpg" alt="Upload">

Yes, they are stuck on back order, The House Boardshop, <a href="http://www.-the-house.com" target="_blank">www.-the-house.com</a> said they should be in by the 2nd week of april! This Years Helium line is SICK, I am riding that same vest, in White, had to get the Tux vest Too. The new handles are great as well, the ropes all are all 80 feet long, non of this 75 foot BS!

Helium was bought out by a new company and the 07 product is all on backorder until April. That is what I have ben told by Helium, we are waiting on our product as well, I will post when we get the 07 product in the shop.

K2 bought Helium and Nevin. Sad to see Spencer leave, but he built a good brand.

entrustclothing 03-28-2007 3:12 PM

just found out stearns bought helium! we canceled all our orders from them!

innov8actionsports.com 03-28-2007 3:19 PM

K2 owns Stearns

entrustclothing 03-28-2007 3:20 PM

regardless we will not be carrying helium, we don't work with companies that don't contact us for months at a time and then we have to find out 3rd person that they have been sold.

innov8actionsports.com 03-28-2007 3:23 PM

Thats crazy they dident contact you, we were contacted about the buy out a couple months ago.

entrustclothing 03-28-2007 3:36 PM

their loss! pretty shady since they were local to us

innov8actionsports.com 03-28-2007 3:41 PM

I just think our rep out here in Texas, Brian Jolin does a great job!!and stays on top of things, thats who came by the shop a told me as soon as he found out.

entrustclothing 03-28-2007 3:49 PM

well our rep was spencer and he never called or anything

brick 03-28-2007 3:56 PM

Jeff will you shoot me an email when you get the vests in your store?

innov8actionsports.com 03-28-2007 4:07 PM

Yes I will Tim.

redv215 03-28-2007 5:56 PM

What size Tim. I will ask the rep here in Sac if he has any.

brick 03-29-2007 8:39 AM

Tate, I'm not sure, either a medium or a large. The sizing looks different than for O'neill. Right now, I wear a medium in the O'Neill Law.

innov8actionsports.com 03-29-2007 10:10 AM

For Helium Vest <BR>Medium/chest size 36 to 38 <BR>Large/chest 38 to 40

Helium being owned by k2 is the best thing that could have happened to the company. I just toured Heliums new offices and warehouse yesterday and all i can say is WOW.... <BR> <BR>entrust clothing (entrustclothing) - Spencer was to busy doing the wrong thing to grow the company in the right direction, I'm Glad He's out of the indusrty. <BR> <BR>GAME ON for Helium!!!

kaesen 04-05-2007 1:31 AM

sterns will be good for helium in the long run...

izzy 04-05-2007 4:29 PM

I could care less who owns who, I just want the SWAT Speed I ordered close to two month ago! <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/sad.gif" border=0>

izzy 04-09-2007 3:54 PM

KEEP WAITING!!!!!<img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/angry.gif" border=0> <BR>I just got this e-mail... <BR> <BR>Unfortunately we have just received word from our sales rep at Helium that our shipment has once again been delayed until almost the end of May. Helium and its parent company GS2 are currently in the process of being acquired by K2, a large sporting goods conglomerate, creating this lengthy product delay. According to our sales rep, Helium’s entire 2007 product is just now leaving China and it will not arrive in the U.S. for at least another 30 days.

dlwsrider 04-10-2007 9:46 AM

And i was so close to getting a vest from helium. <BR> <BR>Brian Jolin is my rep for an anarchy eyewear sponsership and he did a really good job with helping me out even though im just a local rider in the middle of arkansas. I respect that kind of stuff so i thought id support some of his other companies

martinique 04-12-2007 5:54 PM
