NeilPryde Combat Eco Foil Impact FZ

FAQ

What is the NeilPryde Combat Eco Foil Impact FZ vest designed for?

The NeilPryde Combat Eco Foil Impact FZ was specially developed for foiling sports such as wing foiling, kite foiling, and windsurfing with a foil. It protects the chest, stomach, sides, and back from hard impacts and collisions with the foil or board.

What protection does the vest offer?

Strategically placed padding in the chest, stomach, side, and back areas absorbs impacts. The securely sewn-in padding prevents shifting upon impact, ensuring consistent protection during every session.

Does the vest also assist with swimming and getting back on board?

Yes, the vest provides additional buoyancy, making it easier to swim to fallen equipment and significantly easier to get back on board.

What material is the Combat Eco Foil Impact FZ made of?

The vest is made of 80 percent neoprene and 20 percent nylon. This combination ensures flexibility, a comfortable fit, and reliable protection.

What sizes are available, and how does the vest fit?

The Combat Eco Foil Impact FZ is available in sizes XS to XXL. We recommend choosing one size larger than your wetsuit so that it fits comfortably over the suit.

Can the vest also be worn with a harness?

The vest is primarily designed as impact protection for foiling. When wearing it with a harness, make sure that the fit and freedom of movement are suitable, as thick padding can press uncomfortably depending on the harness model.

How do I properly care for the Impact vest?

Rinse the vest with clean fresh water after every session and let it dry in the shade. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight so that the neoprene and padding retain their protective function.

What skill level and conditions is the vest suitable for?

The vest is suitable for intermediate and beginner riders who go out on the water with a foil. It is a sensible companion on inland waters, in the surf, and during high-wind sessions, where collisions with the foil or board are a risk.
