Non Coast Guard Approved –This is not a Life Jacket

As Nic Leduc has burst onto the scene, he didn’t hold back when it came to input for his new Ripsaw Jacket. Segmented foam panels cover this vest for impact protection and a range of motion ideal for today’s wakeboarders. The Ripsaw’s lower perimeter will keep your vest in position and hide those cracks that often appear while riding. 

  • Non Coast Guard Approved –This is not a Life Jacket
  • Simple Front Zip Entry
  • Horizontal Flex Zones
  • Lightweight Construction
Please note that vests should fit snugly to get the best comfort and performance of your jacket. Since vests stretch out with wear and use, the initial fit should feel fairly tight.  Don't be alarmed if your vest feels a bit snug when you first receive it.

FAQ

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A COMP AND A CGA VEST?

A CGA vest is a U.S. Coast Guard–approved life jacket designed to provide maximum flotation and meet legal safety requirements on most public waterways. It is thicker and more buoyant to help keep you afloat in an emergency. A comp vest (competition vest) is not Coast Guard approved. It is thinner, lighter, and more flexible for better mobility, but it does not meet legal life jacket requirements on most public lakes and rivers.

How do I know it fits?

If it zips, it fits. Comp vests are designed to fit snug, so if you can zip it up, it’s the right size. They will loosen slightly once they get wet, which is why we recommend starting with a tight fit.

Who should wear a comp vest?

Comp vests are best suited for experienced riders who are confident in the water and prioritize mobility and comfort while riding. They are commonly worn by advanced wakeboarders, wakesurfers, and cable park riders who want a slimmer fit and greater freedom of movement. Comp vests are not recommended for beginners, children, or anyone riding in situations where a Coast Guard–approved life jacket is required.
