DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Comfort and Ergonomics
The Vector Amp's ergonomic cut fits snugly around your torso without restricting your shoulders, giving you the freedom you need for pumping, sheeting in, and rotations. The stretch panels and soft neoprene follow your movements, reducing chafing and pressure points from your waist harness. You get reliable protection that's so discreet you'll barely notice it's there.
Protection and Padding
The optimized padding is strategically placed to absorb impacts across your torso and abs while keeping the vest light. The foam is shaped to reduce bulk around the harness, maintaining solid support and contact with your waist harness without adding unnecessary volume. The Vector Amp is designed for safety and meets CE standards.
Easy to Use
The front zip makes getting the vest on and off extremely simple, a real advantage between sessions or when you're packing up at the spot. Its low-absorbency outer material helps it dry faster and stay light after use. In practice, you'll save time when gearing up and packing down.
Compatibility and Fit
The Vector Amp is designed to be worn with waist harnesses. The cut and padding layout provide clear access to your spreader bar and won't interfere with your harness's support. Available in a full range of sizes from XS to XXL, it fits most body types and is built for committed sessions without sacrificing everyday convenience.
