PFD suggestion

Law here says PFD on lake. Does anybody have any good suggestions for a life jacket for windsurfing?

Patagonia has a Lotus designs Kayak vest that works very well with Waist Harnesses. Several members of our windsurf club use this vest.

I have an old water skiing vest, jacket type with four buckle straps in front. The type with a nylon cover over closed cell foam rather than smooth skin closed cell foam type. More comfortable against the skin. I removed the bottom strap which allows space for my seat harness hook. I haven't worn it in years, but we used to have the same law on some of our Texas lakes.

It is comfortable and non restrictive. Check out your sporting goods and boat shops for ski jackets.
