The Risky is awesome! lol Im ordering tonight! I only with the scarface was still around. Id love to have gotten one of those as well!

Well got my vest in today and F me its to big. It looks awesome and I like it alot. But now its gotta go back. I ordered it just like I ordered my other one. A Large, and the chest sizes are even supposed to be the same. Oh well....any one here want to buy it off me.... Looks like ill be buying another one.

 

[SUPERJET-113]

Oh great... I hope mine is not to big either!
Glad to hear you got it anyways.

got mine today! the material is sick on the riscky. its like wearing a bathrobe and the length is perfect.

 

[Shifty]

Mine is due in today as well. I checked Heliums size chart so im hopping the Med will fit well.

 

[ncbrock]

I might order another one.. the risky probably. Im 15 and still growing and ordered a large for me to grow into, and it fits decent right now, but a medium would be great for the time being.

 

[Liquid-6]

Well another one was just ordered. No shipping charged on this one whoop. So customer service isnt to bad. Gonna send the other one back I think and they will credit my card back.

 

[t1024j]

well im 5'11'' 185 and the large fits good without wetsuit and perfectly snug with wetsuit. you can barely tell its a life vest!!!. pretty rediculous and bright.

yeah my large van helium just came in size was 40-44 inch for the large.

i previously had a 36-40 which was tight without the straps this one needs the straps to fit me snug but will work and will be better over a wet suit.

Got one too small, sold it for what I paid on Craigslist in a couple hours.

Going back to get one that fits now lol.

you can barely tell its a life vest!!!

if its a Risky, thats because its not a life vest and not US coast guard approved. read the warning on the inside. just as a reminder for future orders.

I got the XL in Risky Bussiness and the Voodoo. Here's keeping my fingers crossed. I'm about 6'1 and 190. My chest is about 42-43ish. My Stearns V flex large is just a bit big for me, but the Helium has a different size chart from what I read.

hmmm i got a cascade in large and it says 38-40 chest size for a large.

I can say I have been knocked unconcious before while riding, it was a bad accident while i was new to standups, luckily I was able to pull myself up in the tray before I went out. I was wearing an approved lifejacket though so I wonder what would happen if I didnt pull myself in the tray and was wearing one of these? probably not pretty.

Dont know if this has been mentioned in this thread or not but some of the kids and womens Helium wake vests are on sale too!
I just got a Van Helium for my kid @ $21! Now if I can keep her from loosing it...

I just ordered a voodoo in small and one of the womens life jackets. Hopefully they fit.

 

[t1024j]

i am well aware that it isnt cg approved. and as far as being knocked unconcious even with a cg life vest you are likely to drown due to your weight naturally going forward. i can what if all day but if you get knocked out and your peeps you ride with dont go help you then maybe you should get new friends. i can also wrap myself in memory foam so i dont get bruises too i guess =)

p.s. i just got it to look buff on the beach cuz my ski runs great on the trailer hahahahahah

 

[Midlake Crisis]

Mine came today, 5'11" 180, Large Helium fits me good.

 

[sdhunter123]

just got mine in today.. im 6 ft 190lb...orderd a XL, and feel like it may be a bit to big.havent decided if im gonna send it back.. i know it gets a lil bigger when wet and i will prob loose like 10lbs once the season starts ( 2 weeks, cant wait) so ill prob send it back.. would suck to get the large and find out that it is to small though...love the jacket though

 

[Patrick Star]

If my XL voodoo and risky don't fit I'm just gonna use 2 part foam to make up the difference.:lmao:
