Jetpilot Tour Coats is a functional piece of gear that enhances your performance and safety on the water and allows riders to enjoy their watersports even when temperatures drop :

• Wind & Water Protection: The outer shell is made from neoprene keeping cold air and water spray out. It acts like a shield when you're riding at speed, cutting down the wind chill that often sneaks through.
• Thermal Warmth: The coat adds an extra thermal layer over your existing riding gear, making it perfect for early morning starts, late-season riding, or colder climates.
• Comfort Without Compromise: Unlike bulky jackets, the Tour Coat is cut to allow a full range of motion while you ride.

1. Over Your Life Jacket (PFD)

Wearing the tour coat over your life jacket is the most common method for staying warm without compromising safety and providing the best protection. Here's why:

• Maximum warmth and weather protection: You get full coverage from the wind and spray, especially across the chest and neck, keeping your upper body warm.
• Easy to remove: If conditions warm up mid-ride, you can quickly unzip or remove the coat without taking off your life jacket.
• Ideal for cold or rough conditions: This setup is perfect when you're riding in colder temperatures, offshore swell, or heavy wind.

Pro tip: Consider a slightly larger size if you're wearing it over a bulky life jacket to keep your movement unrestricted.

2. Under Your Life Jacket

Wearing the tour coat under your life jacket is an option if you're looking for a more snug fit or plan to ride aggressively where minimal gear shift is ideal.

• Closer fit: This keeps everything tight to the body and can feel more secure for high-mobility riding.
• Sleeker profile: Reduces flapping or drag in high-speed conditions.
• Warm base layer: Still provides thermal warmth, especially if you're wearing a comp vest or slim PFD.
