Inflatable life jackets?

All mine have got either NZ or Australian standards https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...fecdbd8eca.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b86bb4d698.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...42a46befcd.jpg

Non-inflatable seems the foolproof way to go. They are not heavy either way and they double as an insulated, raised seat.

In the bush though, a common danger is from slipping, falling, hitting your head against something. Any of you routinely wearing a simple climbing helmet? Can you recommend any type or a particular model?

Looked up the Petzl helmets on trademe, they don't look too geeky.

Especially sensible if going bush on your own.

And some colours might prevent non-identified-target headshots.

Trouble is they are bulky and uncomfortable so dont get worn and are used as a insulated raised seat:faill:

At least with an inflatable they are hardly a hinderance so get worn....I certanly was guilty of having the life jacket as a seat for a long long time till I got inflatables. Now I wear one 90% of the time.....old habits etc.
