For anyone who spends long hours on the water – whether during downwind journeys, long SUP tours, offshore trips, parawing sessions, or dynamic days on a wing or wakeboard – the right gear makes all the difference. Comfort, mobility, and safety must work together seamlessly. This is exactly what the new Soöruz STRATO Vest delivers, now designed in a way that makes it easy to pair with RESTUBE Safety Buoy for additional safety and peace of mind.
The STRATO Vest has been engineered specifically for long-distance and offshore conditions. It is 50N certified, ensuring reliable buoyancy and safety performance according to European standards. Its lightweight 13 mm foam provides protection without adding unnecessary bulk. Thanks to its ergonomic, slim-fit design, the vest sits close to the body and stays in place, even during powerful or repetitive movements. An adjustable waist strap offers secure support, and the robust front zipper ensures quick and easy entry and exit – even when fingers are cold or conditions are rough. Reflective strips are integrated to enhance visibility in low-light environments, adding an important safety factor when sessions go longer than planned.
One of the advantages of the STRATO Vest is its compatibility with the RESTUBE Safety Buoy, allowing riders to carry additional emergency flotation without sacrificing mobility. The RESTUBE Safety Buoy can be fastened securely and remains unobtrusive until needed, offering an immediate boost of buoyancy during unexpected situations or long-distance offshore runs. It’s a practical and simple way to enhance safety while keeping the vest’s slim, ergonomic profile intact.
Functionality is another area where the STRATO Vest stands out. A spacious rear pocket accommodates a hydration reservoir – an essential feature for downwinders and parawing pilots who cover long distances and need continuous access to water. On the front, zippered pockets provide space for essentials like snacks, tools, keys, or navigation devices. The vest also includes leash attachment loops as well as multifunctional straps ideal for securing items such as a flashlight, a radio, or other important gear. Additionally, it is compatible with the Soöruz Wing Hook, making it even more versatile for wingfoil enthusiasts.
In essence, the STRATO Vest offers exactly what modern water and air-adventurers need: comfort, practicality, and the option to seamlessly integrate additional safety gear like the RESTUBE Safety Buoy. It supports long sessions on open water or in the air, provides well-designed storage solutions, and enhances visibility and preparedness. Rather than being just another piece of equipment, the STRATO Vest becomes a reliable companion—built for riders who love distance, rely on their gear, and want the freedom to explore with confidence.
