Forward WIP Wing Impact Vest 50 N
Beschreibung
The Forward WIP Wing Impact Vest 50 N is for wing foilers who want a more supportive, more protective solution than a minimal vest, but who still want the convenience of an integrated hook rather than adding a separate harness around the outside. It combines flotation, body protection and hook-in function in one cleaner package. This makes it particularly attractive for riders spending more time powered up, riding faster or simply wanting a tidier and more supportive setup for longer sessions. It feels more substantial than the softer wing-vest options, which is exactly why many progressing riders will prefer it.
Where It Sits in the Forward WIP Range
Within the Forward WIP wing-vest line-up, this sits above the softer, more stripped-back Forward WIP Wing Neo Vest and above the non-hook Forward WIP Flow Neo Vest. It gives you more support, more protection and a more serious wing-specific feel. If you want the most advanced integrated-harness vest in the range, the Forward WIP Wing Impact Evo Vest is the step up. If you want a lighter, simpler feel, the Wing Neo Vest remains the softer alternative.
Why Choose the Forward WIP Wing Impact Vest 50 N?
- Integrated 40mm wing hook keeps the overall setup tidy and reduces the need for separate harness pieces.
- 50N buoyancy adds reassurance without going to a bulky lifejacket format.
- Reinforced support and thermoformed foam make it a better match for longer, harder wing sessions.
- Low-profile shaping still helps preserve movement through pumping and transitions.
- Useful storage is a real bonus for small essentials and safety items.
