i get major lower back pain while wakeboarding...is this vest going to help or is it bulls**t?

Helium :: 2006 Flak LRS (Camo)


The Flak features Nevin's signature lumbar reinforcement system. Nevin invented the L.R.S....and still makes the most supportive lumbar system on the market. By sewing lumbar pads in to the back of the vest and using an extra wide Neoprene waste belt, the L.R.S. gives unparalleled support.

I have the O'Neill LRS vest and it was well worth the $140 dollars that i paid.

Did not know that they made a vest for lumbar support. Most likely it makes you have better posture that gives the back pain releaf. Just not convinced due to my lower back pain during riding is caused by how I stand on the board in the twisted position and landing a jump with both hands on the rope. No lumbar support system can change this.

I got one last year and I love it. The only down fall is when you hit hard the lrs tends to ride up and you have to fix it, but a small price to pay for less back pain.

Are the Nevin/Helium Flak Vests CGA approved, or just the Swat CGA? They all look alike...

Chad, look for two buckles. If there aren't two buckles on a vest you can guarantee it's not USCGA.
