I > always wear a bicycle helmet, seat belt and PFD, and I've benefited in I just have to ask - How do you fit it all in your car? How do you get the seat belt into your kayak? How do you get a seat belt onto your bike? Finally, some lightness on the PFD debate 8) Speaking of lightness. From what I've gleaned about the advantages of not wearing a pfd they where usually cases where less bouyancy was helpful. Would this be a good argument for a lighter/thinner _less bouyant_ PFD? A vest that gave more room for swimming, perhaps tighter fitting in the right places and wouldn't resist your choosing to dive if you wanted. How bout a PFD with removable section in the back that could (wait for it).. double as a paddlefloat! 8} I'm not entirely funning about this. I do wonder what use a less bouyant pdd would be?
