🛡️ 5 Reasons Every Kiter Needs an Impact Vest (Even If You Think You Don’t)

Let’s cut the crap: if you’re still riding without an impact vest, you’re either new, invincible… or in denial. Here’s why serious kiters don’t hit the water without one.

1. Crashes Happen — Even to Pros

You’re sending loops one day, ragdolling the next. Doesn’t matter how good you are. Impact vests cushion those gnarly slams, especially during sketchy landings or overpowered sessions.

👉 Grab your vest now – your ribs will thank you.

2. Extra Buoyancy = Longer Sessions

Let’s be real—some sessions turn into survival mode. An impact vest keeps you afloat when your legs are fried and your kite’s on a break.

3. Better Fit = Better Ride

Modern vests (like ours) are slim, stretchy, and won’t bunch under your harness. You’ll barely feel it’s on… until it saves your ass.

5. It Looks F*cking Cool

Let’s not pretend looks don’t matter. A clean, fitted vest just hits different — and we designed ours to match your style, not clash with it.

Final Word:

If you kite without a vest, fine. Just don’t come crying when you eat it at 30 knots and your spine meets your board.

👊 Protect your body. Ride longer. Ride harder.
