my vote goes to the o'neill TNT, its side entry, molded foam to reduce water absorbance and dry really fast, but segmented in squares to be really flexible. plus the glideskin lining on the inside sort of "sticks" to your body so the vest doesnt shift around or ride up on you in a big crash. cant go wrong.
the checkmate is what replaced the vapor, but i like the TNT's molded foam better, plus the glideskin is on the inside so it wont get all cracked after a long time in the sun (this happened to my old outlaw and friends checkmates).
