Hey, Im about to begin doing some downwinders and need to get a PFD. Im new to it and Ive not heard much about PFD that are suitable for SUP riders (plenty that suit kiteboarders etc), so Im thowing this open to anyone and everyone with any recommendations for any suitable PFD
thanks!
We mostly use the Ultra brand and get the largest size because the only difference is the length of the shoulder straps and you want them long so it sits low and not up under your arms.

I'm getting some samples of CO2 inflatable PFDs for sales in Japan, they might not meet the Australian standards, but they can support up to 120Kg for 24hrs, looks like this :
very compact belt before you inflate them, can replace the C02 to use again
try the Neil Pryde or NPX high hooker.
good race vest, cant even feel that you have it on.
One problem with the cylinder inflating type is that if you fall against your board right where the cylinder sits you wil either ding your board or worse.. Break/bruise a rib.. and that can be vey painful.. Can't it Jonathan..
