A windsurf impact vest absorbs the shock of crashes, hard landings and contact with your equipment, protecting your ribs, back and torso during high-energy sailing. Unlike buoyancy aids, impact vests prioritise padding and protection over flotation, making them the preferred choice for experienced sailors in waves and freestyle.
Our padded vests are designed to be worn comfortably under or over a harness, with flexible panels that move with your body and don't restrict your range of motion. Modern impact vest construction uses foam that's soft and pliable during normal movement but firms up on impact to dissipate force effectively.
If you're sailing in waves, jumping or trying new tricks, an impact vest adds a layer of confidence that lets you commit fully to your moves. Browse our windsurf impact vests and sail harder with less worry.
