The Best Wakeboard Vest for Cable Parks
Anyone into wakeboarding has most likely heard of cable parks. These cable parks, created specifically for wakeboarders and wakeskaters continue to improve in quality and performance, attracting more and more users each day. Because these wakeboard cable parks can be dangerous, it is always a good idea to wear a wakeboard vest when riding the different features.
For anyone who hasn't been to a wakeboard cable park in the past, it is basically a lake or pond with a cable system running through out that pulls riders through a specific line of different obstacles which can include rails, boxes, wall rides, and kickers. Most riders like to throw different spins and grabs into these different features requiring an increased range of motion and flexibility compared to your regular "jump the wake" type wakeboarder.
I would strongly recommend a much lighter weight wakeboard vest for this particular wakeboarding activity. This is because it is all about the tricks so you want to be able to move around and maneuver in ways that some bigger, bulkier vests might limit your range of motion. There are several different brands and styles available that would work well for these conditions.
The great thing is, a light weight wakeboarding vest is useful for many other applications as well. If you get good at riding in the cable park and hitting the different features, you will probably get more interested in throwing more spins when riding behind a boat. Many riders also really like the light weight wakeboard vests for wake surfing. Being able to wear a much lighter vest makes the rider feel more independent and laid back, and that's a great feeling when you are surfing behind the boat!
Whatever the application, a lightweight wakeboard vest is a good investment for anyone who uses cable parks, likes to spin, or even just your laid back wake surfer. It is good to have one sitting around to use when you want to!
