"IF IT ZIPS, IT FITS"

All vests must fit snug like a compression shirt. Neoprene is designed to expand when wet for a custom "wet-fit."

CURRENT SELECTION Impact Vests (NCGA) 10-15% Stretch

Will contour significantly after a few sessions.

Life Jackets (CGA) 8-10% Stretch

Less expansion due to thicker foam.

The Golden Rule:
If your vest zips up effortlessly on land, it is likely too big. A loose vest will ride up past your ears once you hit the water.

Pro Tip: Follow cuts their vests with precision. Please check the description for specific Relaxed or Tapered fit profiles.

Product Overview

Sustainable Strength. Timeless Stealth.
The 2026 Follow P1 Traction Womens in Black isn’t just a black vest—it’s a high-performance tool crafted from an average of 78.6 recycled plastic bottles. By utilizing GRS-Certified Recycled Chevron Polyester, Follow has achieved a level of 4-way stretch and softness once thought impossible for recycled materials. Whether you are leaning into a high-speed waterski turn or taking a massive kicker hit on your wakeboard, the P1 Traction provides the elite protection and lightweight feel required for top-tier progression.

The Multi-Sport Corset Fit
Engineered for the multi-disciplinary rider, the Corset - Tailored Fit offers a sleek, secure silhouette that eliminates the "bulk" of standard vests. This architecture uses a traditional single-side segmentation that allows the vest to flex naturally with your core, which is essential for the micro-adjustments needed in wakefoiling. Combined with the TrueFit™ Liner, the P1 Traction Black stays suctioned to your body, ensuring zero ride-up during deep-water wakesurf starts or high-impact surface crashes.

CGA vs Impact Vest — What is the difference?

Note: Some impact vests, like the Ronix Vader, look like a CGA vest with 3 points of contact (zipper + buckles) but are in fact Impact Vests. Always verify the safety rating before purchasing.

FAQ'S: FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Will the Black recycled material fade to grey over time? +
No. The Recycled Chevron Polyester is engineered with high-grade UV stabilizers. Unlike cheap, non-recycled neoprene that can "ash out," this Black stays deep and matte. It’s the perfect wakeboard vest for riders who want their gear to look new for multiple seasons.
How does the "Project One" tech affect the weight of the vest? +
There is zero weight penalty for being planet-friendly. By using Featherweight Foam—the softest and lightest foam in the Follow lineup—the P1 Traction remains one of the lightest wakesurf vests on the market. It sheds water rapidly to keep you light on your feet.
Is the Corset Fit too tight for waterskiing or wakeboarding? +
The Corset Fit is actually preferred by skiers because it provides a "compression" feel that supports your ribs during high-speed spray. It offers a secure, streamlined profile that won't catch the wind, making it an elite waterski vest for those moving beyond bulky standard PFDs.
Can I really feel the difference of the TrueFit™ Liner while foiling? +
Absolutely. In wakefoiling, the smallest amount of gear-shift can ruin a pump. The TrueFit™ Liner creates a permanent internal bond that stops the foam from sliding around inside the vest. It feels like an extension of your body, which is vital for foil stability.
