What is the difference between impact vests and PFDs (Personal Floatation Devies) or life jackets?Updated 2 months ago

  • Impact vests: designed for high-performance riding and crash protection but not safety-certified to Australian Standards and usually this has a thinner profile. .

  • PFDs/Life Jackets: are certified flotation devices required by law for boating, PWC and wake boarding use in Australia. All Jetpilot PFDs / life jackets sold in Australia meet Australian Standards, please refer to the specific product page for more information as safety information for each vest may differ.
