The full rundown on Life Jackets & PFDs — Mens, Womens & Kids
Life jackets approved to AS 4758, for everyone on the boat
This is the full Jetpilot life jacket range: mens, womens, kids and infant vests, every one approved to Australian Standard AS 4758 with the level on its product page. Most are Level 50S, the jet ski, wake and tow-sports level, any colour, the minimum on a PWC in every state. The Red, Yellow and Orange Level 50 colourways are the same vests in high-vis, made for riders who take the ski beyond smooth water in states that require it, Queensland included. The Adult Inflatable is the one Level 150 jacket, for the boat and never for a ski. Start with the Australian life jacket regulations guide, then pick the row.
Shop by who is wearing it
- Mens — Cause and Helium for weekends, Venture for dawnies and all-dayers, Vault and RX Vault Pro-Tech for the start line, X1, Quantum and Pro C4 for behind the boat.
- Womens — Cause Ladies, Eden, X1 Ladies, Allure and Aurora, cut for women rather than sized down.
- Kids — Cause Kids, Freeride and X1 in sizes 3–4 through 12–14, plus the Paddle Pal Splash approved swim vest.
- Infant — the Cause Infant in size 1–2, with a safety pillow or without.
Shop by what you ride
On the ski, jet ski life jackets has every PWC vest in one place, most with the Hidden Supergrip handle. Behind the boat, wakeboard life jackets are cut to flex through a carve and cop the landing. The crew member with four legs gets a dog PFD, and the tinnie gets the Helium that lives under the seat for whoever turns up without one.
What is inside a Jetpilot vest
Freelite bevelled-edge buoyancy foam does the floating without the bulk. EcoPrene, Jetpilot's neoprene made with recycled bottles and around 30% lighter than standard, sits under most of the range, with tough nylon on the Helium and Titan and 360 Stretch on the wake vests. YKK zips, quick positive buckles, the Hidden Supergrip handle on the PWC vests and Pro-Tech Impact Protection on the race vests. Salt, sun, fuel splash and being stood on in the pits: built for all of it, by a crew that rides.
Fit is the last safety feature
A vest that rides up in the water is not doing its job. Size off a chest measurement with the size guide, buckle up on dry land and lift at the shoulders; past your ears, drop a size. Sizes run S to 4XL in the mens range, 6 to 18 in the ladies range and 1–2 to 12–14 for kids.
Try one on first
Want to size it in person? The watersports dealers page lists Jetpilot stockists by state. Either way the standard is the same: AS 4758, the level on the label, and a fit that stays put when you get flung.
