ProLimit Predator Vest Half Padded Frontzip

FAQ

What is the ProLimit Predator Vest Half Padded Frontzip designed for?

The ProLimit Predator Vest is a half-padded impact protection vest for water sports with an increased risk of impact, such as kitesurfing, windsurfing, wing foiling, SUP, and surfing. It reliably protects the torso, chest, and back from impacts, falls, and board contact.

What does Half Padded mean for this vest?

Half Padded means partial padding: The particularly impact-critical areas around the chest, ribs, and back are padded with high-density foam, while the belly area is deliberately left unpadded. This allows you to easily combine the vest with a waist belt or climbing harness without the belt pressing into the padding.

Can I wear the vest with a kite or windsurf harness?

Yes, the Predator Vest Half Padded is specifically designed for use with a waist belt. The waist area features a grippy surface to prevent the belt from slipping, while the padding provides protection in the right places.

What padding does ProLimit use in the Predator Vest?

ProLimit uses high-density foam with so-called Armadillo Armour padding. Several strategically placed padding inserts optimize protection against impact, stretching, and compression without restricting freedom of movement.

How do you open and close the vest?

The vest opens and closes at the front with a YKK front zipper. This makes it easier to put on and take off at the spot, even over wet neoprene or a lycra.

What sizes is the Predator Vest Half Padded available in?

The ProLimit Predator Vest Half Padded Frontzip is available in several sizes, so you can choose the right version for your body shape. Take a look at the size selection directly on the product.

Is the vest also suitable for beginners or more for advanced riders?

The vest is aimed at all water sports enthusiasts who want additional impact protection on the upper body – from ambitious beginners to experienced riders. The padding provides a lot of security, especially during learning phases, jumps, and rough conditions.

How do I properly care for my ProLimit Predator Vest?

Rinse the vest with clear fresh water after every session to remove salt and chlorine residues, and let it air dry in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight for extended periods and store the vest flat or hanging so that the foam retains its shape.
