    Default Anyone have a contact for discount watersports stuff?

    My oldest Grandson needs/wants a new vest this year. He's set his sights on the new 2010 O'Neill Gooru and i cannot find it anywhere but full retail. Anyone? So as not to start a great debate let me say yes i know it's not a uscg vest but a pullover comp vest and i'm fully aware of the pros and cons of each type.

    Thanks guys, i've checked Boardersmall, Evo Gear, Wakeside, Buywake, Boardstop, etc. Those that do have it want $124.95 for it.

    Ian, that's the '09 vest in the link and of course he doesn't like that design, go figure.

    Here it is for $110. All though I am not sure what the shipping is. I am pretty sure it's a 2010...

    A uscg vest has two main criteria, it must float you for 30 minutes, will keep you vertical in the water and it may roll you over onto your back if uncouncious.

    Some enforcement departments will ticket you if you don't have enough uscg pfd's on your boat and they won't count non-uscg vests. To the best of my knowledge they cannot ticket you though for wearing them.

    In NYS they will fine you 25 to 100 for riders wearing non approved vests. they made a law that between nov 1 to May 1 that all opeartors and passengers will be require to wear an approved PFD in all boat 21 ft or less regardlessof age ( most likely to avoid shock drowning in cold water)

    yeah i guess i need to check the laws and see what it states in ohio for sure. but i usually see in pics the pros using pfd's so thin and small there is no way they are uscg approved and i wondered how they got away with it just assumed anyone's vest had to be but certain states have certain laws and some are more strick then others ?
