Engineered for riders who push speed and progression, the Vaikobi V-Impact Vest is built for impact protection, comfort and unrestricted mobility. Whether you are foiling, kitesurfing or riding PWC at speed, this slimline front-zip vest delivers confidence when crashes are hard and conditions are demanding.

A close-to-body performance fit combines flexible neoprene with soft, segmented foam panels that move naturally with your body. This design helps absorb impact while maintaining full freedom of movement, reducing restriction during riding and minimising bulk under harnesses or outer layers.

Sport-specific buoyancy placement is optimised for active riding positions, balancing flotation and impact protection without compromising agility. Harness compatibility is built in, with removable lower torso and back padding allowing the vest to sit comfortably with waist harness systems.

Fast-draining perforated neoprene keeps the vest feeling light on the water, while integrated storage and hydration options add practical functionality for longer sessions. Lightweight, low-profile and purpose-built, the V-Impact Vest blends protection and performance for riders who want to push harder without being held back.
