You're just having a good time. You start to get the hang of wakeboarding well, but then you make a big blow on the water. At first you have the idea that you're doing alright, but later in the day you start to suffer from your ribs. That is why impact vests were invented. Impact vests for wakeboarding will protect you if you make a big smack on the water. Whether you are boarding behind a boat or cable, a wakeboard impact vest is a must. After all, safety comes first, feel free to take a look online or visit the store!

What is the difference between an impact vest and a flotation vest?

It is important to realize that an impact vest is definitely something different than a flotation vest or life jacket. A life jacket keeps you afloat, useful for putting on boots and waiting for the boat. An impact vest, as the name suggests, purely absorbs the blows. In addition, it provides a little of buoyancy, comparable to your wetsuit. But it WON'T keep you above the water if you're knocked out. Most importantly, Telstar Surf has a wide range of wakeboard vests.

What to look for when purchasing a wakeboard impact vest?

Gender: There are impact vests for men and women. Make sure you don't buy an impact vest of the opposite sex! This may not feel comfortable and can reduce your performance and fun while wakeboarding.

Size: The size of an impact wakeboard vest can have a lot of influence on your performance. To choose the right size, you can visit the Telstar Surf shop for personal advice. You can also try the impact vests for wakeboarding yourself at home. We always recommend taking a size smaller than you usually choose for a t-shirt. This prevents the vest from sliding up.
