Would be interested to see you review the new Red Paddle Co flotation device which is SUP specific and see you do a comparison between it and the Palm one.
Do you think the adjustable shouder straps will not flip in the face while paddling a strong upwind?an elastic loop could solve this problem. Thank you Beau for this review. I still use a normal bulky PFD I keep under the front bungie here in Phuket. Today I just paid my new board, an HYPR Low Volume Racer 14x 26x6 in purple carbon. You might have seen it on the last videos of Ian Foo. Then after I might consider buying a waist inflatable PFD. Yesterday it was exactly one year I began SUP paddling, 1526 km done with only 88 km the first 3 months on rental boards. My Tikhine is a great board but tired to inflate and deflate 154 times since march 30 2022
Wow you have certainly done some paddling in the last year! Thanks for the comment. The shoulder straps are quite heavy duty and I wouldn't see them flipping up at you in strong winds. Nice to hear you purchased a HYPR race board. Hopefully a lot more paddling for you in 2023! Cheers, Beau
Great review. Could you do a comparison of the Palm Solo Vest vs Peak Racer Pro. I know the peak doesn’t have the pocket but I’d be interested to see if one was more bulkier than the other and if one floats better than the other.

Great suggestion. We need to get our hands on the Red one 👍 Thanks, Beau

Hi Nicola. Thanks for the suggestion! We hope to be able to do some comparisons of other vests soon. Thanks for your interest. Beau
