Connelly Team NCGA Watersports Vest

NCGA stands for Non-Coast Guard Approved. This vest is designed for competition and performance watersports where maximum mobility is prioritized over USCG buoyancy standards, meaning it is not intended for use as a primary life-saving device.

Because this is an NCGA vest, it does not provide the same level of buoyancy as a USCG-approved life jacket. It is best suited for experienced riders who are comfortable in the water and need a vest that allows for a full range of motion.

The 4-way stretch neoprene offers a much tighter, more contoured fit than standard nylon vests. It is designed to hug your body closely, which prevents the vest from riding up or feeling bulky during active movement.

Yes, the heavy-duty front zipper is designed to keep the vest securely in place. However, because it lacks adjustable straps, it is crucial to select the correct size to ensure a snug fit that won't shift when you hit the water.

No, the Glideskin upper panels are specifically designed to shed water quickly. This helps the vest stay lightweight and prevents it from becoming heavy or soggy during extended sessions.

This vest is specifically engineered for active watersports like skiing and wakeboarding. Since it is not USCG-approved, it should not be used as your primary safety device for boating or swimming activities where a life jacket is legally required.
