I'm in the market for a wake vest. What's good, what's not? Do you guys like front zip, side zip, or pullover style?

oneill gooru. not the most bouyant out there, but it floats me. super thin and lightweight.

I just picked up a Liquid Force Impact. Check it out...it's a nice vest.

O'neill Gooru is awesome if you want a comp vest. I like that it's pull-over, keeps me up and feels like I have nothing on when I ride.. it is pretty expensive though.

I got an Oneill Outlaw for Christmas and its great. Slim and it fits real close even in the water. Not CGA of course.

What do you guys think about coast guard approved vs non coast guard approved?

i'm always gonna be for a CGA vest...i could care less if they're bulkier, i'd rather know i'm going to float after taking a digger than have to worry about it. i got the 07 JP baller...definitely a good investment
