Just picked one up for a pretty good price... Anybody for reviews? Cant use this till the season starts...so Im looking at the vest, my new absolute 141 and new zeus bindings..just wishing...lol.. Any reviews of the bindings or board would rock too... Im just trying to figure out how floaty (if any) this vest will be. Im about 6ft tall and 195lbs...
This forum is the only thing that will keep my sanity through the winter of no boarding..
My buddy loves his. He said it actually does actually have better impact resistance than other Comp vests and floats MUCH better compared to most other Comps. He's about 6'3 185
I have one and love it, I really think it does help with the impact of the water.(or at least makes you think it does) I pretty sure I would have broken my ribs a couple times this year if I was wearing my old A-10.
I got knocked out wearing mine in June and it floated me. The only thing I did not like about mine is the stupid leather belt. It broke on a fall on a backroll.
Awesome...I like hearing that it will float and it decently bouyant...Yeah...that leather belt looks like it will get annoying and snap at some point...
