Hi, new to this board thought I'd get some opinions before wasting money on another POS vest.

Thanks

CGA's are for extreme safety goons. Comp is the only way to go and definitely the only way to be cool!!!

LMAO - J/K... I think I've heard that Murray's vest is a great CGA.

Yes Murray's is really nice, if you like front entry but the Hyperlite side entry is great to.

I've heard good things about the Hyperlite SE also. It's on my short list to buy.

I picked up the Jet Pilot Stance (side entry) when it was on one of the deal of the day sites. I like it a lot. Comfortable and not too bulky. It's the first CGA vest that I willingly wear for boarding.

A quick search shows the cheapest price at $69...

Jet pilot makes some good side entry USCG vest. The one i got sucks to my body really well and isn't as bulky as most. I like it cuz it has a lot of lumbar support

I'm still using an old Jet Pilot Cell and it just keeps going and going and going. Great vest, but it's starting to look pretty old these days!

o'neill law i have had for the last 4 years and it is still in decent shape. it gets alot of use too. i think i am going to try out the ronix kai mana cga vest next. i like the look and feel of the cwb essential vest also but have never worn it in the water.

I thought the Helium Paisley is a really great looking and slim CGA vest, but have not seen in person.

Thanks everyone, I would prefer a comp vest but other new riders will want to use it and in fl technically your breaking the law riding a comp vest even though Mr. green jeans has never checked my vest there just happy I have them.

Thanks for the offer randy but I'm gonna need a XL

Kyle, just sent you an email to your hotmail account. These run big, that's why I'm selling it. It will definitely fit you
