O'Neill
O'Neill Women's GEM Ski / Wake Vest
2017 O'neill GEM Vest
The O’Neill vest lineup defies known convention, sets a new industry standard, and leads the way for those who can only follow.
Our Exclusive NytroLite Foam is more buoyant, 3 times lighter, drier and offers better impact protection than conventional foam.
Low density Polyethylene which is expanded using Nitrogen is an exclusive process which cannot be duplicated.
The foam is actually 3x lighter than regular PVC foam and it absorbs 15-20% less water due to the closed cell foam structure.
The resulting foam is approximately 10% more buoyant than PVC meaning we can use less foam in each vest and it will still float the same.

What does H2OProShop have to say:
We love how buoyant O'Neill Comp vests are while not adding any bulk, the Nytrolite foam truly is noticeable right when you jump in the water. They are comfortable to wear, and impact resistant. We wouldn't sell anything that we gave a bad review, and O'Neill is on the top of our list for vest design!
