Whats the best slippery vest,switch molded?

[masterblaster]

heres where im at now trying to decide between the slippery switch molded vest..................http://www.slipperywetsuits.com/gear.jsp?cat_id=1217&product_group_id=3935

and the slippery axxis,this one doest look as nice but i think it may float ya a little better......http://www.slipperywetsuits.com/gear.jsp?cat_id=1212&product_group_id=3928

Id like it to fit well but still float me if something goes really wrong?

also,whats the best riding pant,not diggin the zippers on the slippery this yr,need something to keep my motox knee,shin
pads in place.

all my old stuff got ripped off from the ramp,and my helmet,time to upgrade

I'm not a big fan of vests that have small arm openings with heavy padding like the Axis. Not too excited about buckles in front either.
I have 2 body glove neoprene vests that worked good on the couch but for the SJ I prefer my old Matrix.

i think i am going to try a matrix this year but i have been running a rip curl neo the last year and it has a built in kidney belt absolutly love it if i could get one in a pdf2 id go another for sure

I have not worn the switch while riding, but I tried one on after it had been wet for a while. It felt quite a bit heavier than my matrix when wet. Just something to think about.

I have thr pull over matrix,in black and white,extra large,I cant stand it,I ahve to pull the staps sp tight I cant breath,to keep it from riding up on me when im in the water.its a little to big for me,if anyone wants to trade for a neoprene vest,id love to get rid of it.

 

[masterblaster]

those pants look similiar to the slippery pants,all the motox pants Ive tried in the past,always stretched out and got loose or came unbuckeled when wet,I hear this can be a prob with the slippery also.maybe a heavy duty belt or suspenders would help?

I ended up ordering the switch vest but it's not here yet. I also bought some Primo paintball pants. they worked pretty good. they got a little water logged in the liner which I'll cut out before my next ride. they're a little long on me and if you sinch the ankles they'll hold water so I'll either need to keep them all the way open or add some of those little air vents for drainage. I wore them for a few hours with a couple of spills and didn't have any problems with them comming off. They have a hevy duty velcro belt system to keep them tight.

The Switch vest is the best vest I have ever owned, it stays light and does not soak up water like the others.

 

[masterblaster]

alrighty well that does it then,switch is what im gettin,what is your experience with it floating you in the water,just in case something happens it would be nice to have decent flotation,I dont weigh but 175. I would think being a type 3 it would do ok.

anyone else have any ideas on riding pants.
