Forward WIP
Since the introduction of windfoiling and wingfoiling in recent years, impact protection has become an all-important aspect of safety afloat. Forward WIP (Watersports Impact Protection) was conceived in 2015 to meet the new demands of foiling in the America’s Cup. Today they are the market leader. The products look amazing, are super-comfortable and provide outstanding protection.
Unlike most other brands, Forward WIP impact vests provide high levels of floatation whilst remaining low profile and comfortable. Each model is a EN ISO 12402-5 50N certified buoyancy aid, providing reassurance and protection on every session.
Being the best brand out there, we use them in our wing school and we stock the following for sale:
-
Impact Vest 50N (can be tried at SWM wet or dry, used in the wing school)
