The Fit

Tapered Slim Fit
Cut for women on Jetpilot's X1 ladies block. It's slimmer than Jetpilot's regular-fit vests and narrows from your chest to your waist, so it follows your shape instead of sitting boxy. It's made to feel snug when dry; the 360 Stretch neoprene gives a little once it's wet.

Tight Fit = Safe Fit
It should feel tight when it's dry. It gives a little once it's wet, and a loose vest can ride up or slip off when you hit the water.

Find your size
Measure under your arms, around the fullest part of your bust, then check your weight:

6: 85 cm, 40–60 kg
8: 90 cm, 60–70 kg
10: 95 cm, 70 kg+
12: 100 cm, 70 kg+
14: 105 cm, 70 kg+
16: 110 cm, 70 kg+

Between sizes on a slim cut? Try both on over whatever you ride in, because a springsuit changes the fit. Zip it, clip the buckle and get a mate to lift it at the shoulders: it shouldn't ride up past your chin or ears.

Tested. Trusted. Australian Certified.

Approved to Australian Standard AS 4758, Level 50S: the special-purpose level for watersports like wakeboarding. Same float as Level 50, in any colour.

When you're towed
Every state except WA requires an approved lifejacket when you're towed, and Level 50S is accepted in all of them. WA recommends one, and requires it for slalom. Every state and the NT also require an observer in the boat.

Check your state
Our wake vest guide lists what each state asks of a towed rider.

Look after it
Rinse it in fresh water after every sesh, dry it out of the sun, keep it away from fuel and store it hung up, not crushed under the esky. Check the zip, buckle and foam before you ride, and replace it if it's torn, crushed or badly faded.

Questions riders ask

Is a wake vest a lifejacket?

This one is: it's approved to Australian Standard AS 4758 Level 50S. A wake vest without an AS 4758 level mark isn't a lifejacket.

Do I need a lifejacket when I'm towed?

Every state except WA requires an approved lifejacket when you're towed, and Level 50S is accepted in all of them. WA recommends one, and requires it for slalom. Check your state's rules before you head out.

What size do I need?

Measure around the fullest part of your bust and check your weight against the chart under Find my size: sizes run 6 to 16, for an 85 to 110 cm bust. It's slimmer than Jetpilot's regular-fit vests and narrows from your chest to your waist. It should feel snug when it's dry.

Is this vest legal on a jet ski in my state?

This colourway is Level 50S, approved to Australian Standard AS 4758. Level 50S is accepted on a jet ski on smooth and enclosed water (rivers, lakes, dams and sheltered bays) in every state. Queensland requires Level 50 once you're past smooth water, and Tasmania requires Level 100 or above beyond sheltered water. Rules change by state, so check yours before you launch. Our guide covers each state.

What's the difference between Level 50 and Level 50S?

They float the same. Level 50 comes in high-vis colours, so you're easier to spot, and it's the one Queensland requires past smooth water. Level 50S comes in every other colour and is the ski, wake and tow vest on smooth water in every state. Neither will turn you face-up on its own, so both are for riders who can swim, with help close by.

Is this an impact vest?

No. It's a lifejacket, approved to AS 4758 and tested to keep you afloat. An impact vest without an AS 4758 level mark isn't a lifejacket, so it doesn't count where one is required on the ski or behind the boat.

What if the size is wrong?

Swap it or send it back for a refund within 21 days of purchase. Sale items are the exception. Returns and exchanges has the steps.

How do I look after it?

Rinse it in fresh water after every sesh, dry it out of the sun, keep it away from fuel and store it hung up, not crushed under the esky. Check the zip, buckle and foam before you ride, and replace it if it's torn, crushed or badly faded.
