What do others say about this life jacket for paddle boarding?
Overall, this life jacket has great reviews. Over 80% of reviews are 5 out of 5 stars, with less than 2% being only 1 or 2 stars. Most reviewers love how light and comfortable this life jacket is, and how it hardly feels like you’re wearing it!
Some experts in life jacket usability have complained there isn’t a safety buckle across the zipper section to keep the zipper from accidentally coming undone while paddling. Sure, that could happen, but you would notice the life jacket getting all floppy as it comes undone. Plus, it’s CSA approved so they must not have the same concern.
