High Visibility Lycra Racing Vests for 2011-12 Season

For all those competing in water events in the 2011/2012 Competition Season it is now compulsory that ALL competitors, including Surf Boats (Masters) wear either a Fluro Green or Fluro Pink (depending on gender) Lycra vest. If you turn up on the start line at an event and your are not wearing one you will not be able to start the event.

A number of prototype vests have been 'trialled' at the Board and Ski events with success. SLSSA has undertaken to bulk purchase the vests and on-sell to clubs and/or individuals at cost ($10.00 per vest).

As you would appreciate, with a garment such as this, sizing is always going to be a significant challenge and participants will vary in how they like them to fit. SLSSA in discussions with the manufacturer have ordered a variety of sizes including:

Women (pink) Youth 8, 10, 12, 14, Adult S, M, L
Male (green) Youth 8, 10, 12, 14 Adult S, M, L, XL

NOTE: The above are asian sizes so we recomend going up one size than what you would normaly  wear

Vests are available direct to individuals from SLSSA office, also depending on stock availability they will also be available at carnivals. Numbers are limited so first in best dressed for sizes.
