Follow Wakes, main goal has always been to make products that you– and in turn, wakeboarding – can be proud of. Products that are not just worthy of the sport we love, but products that the riders are proud to wear.
Most Follow life vests we carry are competition vests and are not Coast Guard Approved (CGA). We do offer a few CGA-certified options—be sure to check the product titles and descriptions to confirm the type of vest you're choosing.
Follow comp vests are designed to fit tight—if you can zip it up, it fits. These vests will naturally loosen and flex once you're in the water, so a snug, zipped-up fit on land means you're good to go.
Follow vest pricing reflects the quality of materials, fit, and performance features. Higher-end models may include premium foams, advanced construction, or tailored fits designed for specific riding styles.
Follow Wake comp vests are engineered with premium materials to deliver top-tier performance on the water. Each vest features dual-layer neoprene to minimize water absorption and maintain a consistent fit, along with lightweight, PVC-free foam for superior impact protection. Advanced models use Quad-S stretch neoprene and recycled polyester for enhanced comfort and sustainability. With a TrueFit liner that contours to your body, Follow comp vests provide a secure, performance-driven fit for serious wakeboarders and wakesurfers.
Competition vests are less buoyant than CGA jackets. They are more flexible and provide more mobility than a CGA jacket would allow.
Competition vests are best suited for experienced wakeboarders and wakesurfers who prioritize flexibility and impact protection. Because comp vests offer minimal buoyancy, they are not ideal for beginners. Learning with a comp vest can make it harder to stay afloat and focus on technique. For new riders, we strongly recommend a CGA life jacket to stay safe and make the most of your time on the water.
Comp vests often have neoprene in them which will naturally stretch a bit over time, especially when it's wet.
1. Dual-Layer Neoprene: Most Follow vests feature dual-layer neoprene construction. This design minimizes water absorption and helps maintain the vest's shape, ensuring a consistent fit throughout your session.
2. Featherweight Foam: Used in models like the RD Comp Vest, this ultra-lightweight foam offers superior impact protection without adding bulk, allowing for greater mobility and comfort.
3. Quad-S Neoprene: Exclusive to certain models, Quad-S neoprene provides exceptional softness and stretchability, enhancing the vest's comfort and allowing for a snug, flexible fit.
4. Secureprene and Duraprene: These proprietary materials are incorporated for their durability and secure fit, ensuring the vest stays in place during high-intensity activities.
5. Recycled Chevron Polyester: Featured in the Project One series, this sustainable material is made from recycled plastic bottles, offering a smooth finish and contributing to environmental conservation.
6. G-Lite PVC-Free Foam: A soft, environmentally friendly foam used in select models to provide comfort and impact protection without the use of harmful PVC.
7. TrueFit Liner: This internal lining system ensures the vest conforms to the body's shape, reducing movement and enhancing comfort during use.
