The Solace Impact Vest Szip has emerged as a must-have accessory for kitesurfing enthusiasts who use their mobile phones to track their sessions or take them on the water as a safety backup! Designed with the user’s needs in mind, this premium vest incorporates several advanced features to provide convenience, safety, and outstanding performance.

One of the standout features of the Solace Impact Vest is its waterproof Fidlock pocket situated on the chest. This innovative design allows users to carry their phones without the fear of water damage, enabling them to track their progress with kitesurfing apps seamlessly. This addition marks a significant advancement in how kitesurfers can manage their devices while enjoying their time on the water. The Fidlock design is very innovative and has proved watertight in our testing, even when having some heavy wipeouts. To test it properly, we filled it with a phone case stuffed with tissue so we could check for water ingress, but we didn't find any.

In addition to keeping devices safe, the vest is equipped with a built-in safety knife, ensuring that users are well-prepared for any emergency situations they may encounter. The vest's CE approval signifies that it meets rigorous safety standards, providing further assurance to users about its reliability.

The construction of the Solace Impact Vest is another noteworthy aspect. Utilizing Clash Foam technology, the vest delivers excellent impact protection, which is essential for riders engaging in big air. Furthermore, the non-padded harness waist part is specifically designed to ensure a comfortable fit with whatever harness you choose to ride, allowing for ease of movement and enhancing the overall riding experience.

In terms of usability, the vest features a convenient side zip, facilitating easy wear and removal. This thoughtful design makes it accessible, allowing riders to focus on their performance without the hassle of complicated gear.

It is important to note that, while the Solace Impact Vest excels in providing impact protection and comfort, it is not designed to function as a flotation device or buoyancy aid. Therefore, users should remain aware of this limitation when engaging in water activities.

Overall, the Solace Impact Vest Szip stands out as a well-crafted piece of equipment for kitesurfers aiming to elevate their sessions on the water. With its combination of thoughtful features, high safety standards, superior comfort and waterproof integration for your devices, it ticks a lot of boxes. The Solace is the perfect partner to all your kite sessions especially if you usually ride with your phone in a waterproof bag!
