Ok so I am trying to find out what Oneill vest is the best. I am looking at both non-uscga vest for the boat, and USCGA vest for when I hit the cable. Whats your thoughts on the Oneill vest lineup?

the whole oneill line up is solid.

my favorite is the gooru. its such a comfortable vest. its been out since 05/06 and now every brand now offers a knock off this year.

if you can find the old Boost vest, best one over... I found a few on ebay like 2 years ago and bought them so I have a nice stash for a while

thanks guys - sounds like its a solid buy for the comp(s). Has anyone tried any of their USCGA vests such as the Revenge, Law, Assault, or Hybrid? If so whats everyones 2-cents on these?

After all these years and having owned almost all of the O'neill non-CGA vests I still think the Outlaw is the best. I like having a buckle so it doesn't slide up on crashes and I'm still a fan of being able to put on a vest without having to feel like you're putting a condom on.

I have both a law and revenge on my boat. I like the look and feel of upper part of the revenge better, but the law is more flexible. Can't see needing a noncga when you have the law.

i just got some backorder stuff from oneill today and the new Revenge Comp is so sick. i almost picked one up, but we also got new colors of the gooru and i had to stick with the gooru. i love it too much.

the tnt is also a sick vest that is over looked. great impact protection and it doesnt absorb any water. also its a side entry but the zipper is in the fron so its not up in your arm pit like a jet pilot or helium. much more comfortable
