I am going to get a new USCGA vest and I am between the jetpilot OG, and the CWB essential. Any suggestions?

nick...it's the O'neill Revenge. I have it and really like it. The sliced foam and floating zipper allow great flexibility.

Can't go wrong with the essential, although jet pilot does make great products also

my fave USCGA vest is the Jetpilot full metal jacket (Shaun Murray). Its pretty comfy if you're trying vest on, try this one on too.

Derek, sent you a msg. The Essential is extremely comfortable and well made. I initially bought a size too small so I have two. Anyone want a new size large with tags still on?...never worn outside the house!

The helium looks like it would be tight around the neck?
