I am looking at new vests and just wondered what everyone wears.

I just bought a Liquid Force Watson Comp vest. For sale if you want it. It is a Large. My roommate has a Helium Flak vest and it is pretty cool because it has Lumbar support.

Body Glove Eco vest- be friendly to your enviroment. it is pretty comfortable too with a removable lumbar thing and these rib/kiddney-pads wrap things that feel and look more like a back brace

speaking of... it is on Boardersbestbuy.com now!

I've got the A-10 but i've actually been looking at getting the OG CGA vest. I usually float where my mouth is just above the water line with the A-10. Anyone have experience with both these vests? How does the OG fit compared to the A-10?

Tommy the CGA O.G. is a great vest, it will be a lot different then the A-10, but for CGA, I would say one of the better vest out.
Its got a great fit, I think the CGA Core is the same vest with a different graphic, I ride them both and they feel exactly the same.

Vapor. Like someone else said, it's the best float for a non-CGA that I've tried.

I'd like to hear options on other non-CGAs that float well.

Quicksilver ignite 2

just came in and dying to try it, super thin and comfy' takes a bit to get in/out of but looks dope, cheap ($70 !!!) has impact molding, and still floats like your average comp vest
