The Rib Rocket Vest, designed in California, is your go-to solution for tackling rib pain caused by modern, harder EPS epoxy boards. With strategically placed PVC foam padding, this vest cushions the impact where your ribs meet the board, allowing for a more comfortable paddling experience.

Key Features

• Ergonomic Padding: Strategically sewn-in PVC foam padding where your ribs contact the board, reducing discomfort during prone paddling.
• Premium Materials: 2mm neoprene front panel for enhanced comfort and stability, combined with a Lycra back for a snug fit and breathability in warmer climates.
• Functional Design: Includes a board short loop to prevent ride-up and a side drawstring for a secure fit around the waist.
• Sun Protection: Offers 50+ U.V. protection, keeping you safe from the suns harsh rays.

The tropic white and pale gray styles not only keep you cool by reflecting sunlight but also provide the same reliable rib support. In colder conditions, the vest slips easily over a wetsuit, enhancing visibility and comfort on overcast days. Whether youre in the tropics or tackling cooler waters, the Rib Rocket Vest delivers the protection and comfort you need.
