Product Description The Collision Vest Select Front Zip is the premium choice for riders who refuse to compromise between safety and performance. Featuring a sophisticated material mix, this vest is designed to be thinner and more flexible than traditional impact vests, making it a “prime example” of slimline protection. By placing impact-absorbing panels specifically over critical regions like the spine and ribs, and fusing them with high-flex materials, ION has created a vest that feels like “Ninja Turtle armor” for the modern water sports generation. Whether you are kiteboarding, wing foiling, or wakeboarding, the tailored fit ensures the vest stays in place during heavy crashes, while the Tacky_Hem rubberized strip prevents it from riding up. 1 Please note: This is an impact vest, not a life jacket or PFD. It provides impact protection and additional buoyancy but is not a substitute for a certified life-saving device. Key Features Seamless Rib & Spine Protection: Unique panel design minimizes seams to increase durability and comfort in high-impact zones. Tacky_Hem: A screen-printed rubberized strip along the waistline that grips your skin or wetsuit to prevent the vest from shifting. Easy Entry: A central front zip makes getting in and out of the vest as easy as a standard jacket. Zipper Garage: A small pouch at the top of the zip to prevent irritation and keep the zipper securely stowed. Premium Materials: A blend of 80% Neoprene and 20% Nylon for a soft feel and rapid drying. CE Approved: Meets safety standards according to PPE Directive 89/686/EEC.
