The Best Gear for Long Surf Sessions - PaddleAir

The Best Gear for Long Surf Sessions

Hey Dave, here's a shot (from November) of your vest in action. Truthfully, I don't use it for back or neck support, only (with a teeny bit of air) to pad my sternum ... where the bone protrudes, hence I get a "surf knot" in the middle of my chest, which my double thick wetsuits don't help.

Since getting my PaddleAir, the bump has almost disappeared. Was surfing with Miguel Plaza week before last and I can tell you, he IS using it to help his back. Problems? Only that in surf the size of the photo, during wipeouts, the hose usually comes over my head ... inconvenient, but not dangerous. Anyway, we have waves like this where I surf (Punta Rocas, south of Lima) almost every weekend. I'm stoked. Thanks for the product, and hey, come visit!!
