The days of compromising on either safety or performance are behind us thanks to the fully featured Ronix RXT Capella 3.0 CGA Wakeboard Vest. By leveraging Ronix's unique 2-to-1 tapered foam thickness — with 2" of buoyant foam in the chest area and 1" of foam around the stomach region — the RXT Capella 3.0 CGA Vest provides the buoyancy where you need it while maintaining enhanced flexibility everywhere else. Don't compromise. Experience the lightest, most form-fitting CGA vest available with the Ronix RXT Capella 3.0.
Nature's Neoprene – Neoprene is normally made of petrochemicals - instead we use neoprene made from Limestone. It also lasts longer and is more comfortable.
Air Foam – The lightest and most buoyant foam available. Not only is it slender on the scale, this exclusive foam is also siped for added mobility.
Cushion Foam – Roughly 30% heavier than Air Foam, but man is it comfy when you slip it on.
Diamond Flex Foam – Diamonds are now a man's best friend too! A new siped pattern in Ronix foam for a primo formation around your body.
Capella 3.0 Design
Manhattan Tailored Fit – Designed entirely for the avid waterman. Ronix went deep into the outfitting process and borrowed some principles from lifelong NYC tailors who know what it takes to form a flawless fit. Once Mr. Manhattan got the dimensions all dialed in, the next step was to dial in the ratio of sizes ranging from XS all the way to a 4XL. So not only did Ronix create the perfect fit, but they have it in 8 different sizes.
Oversized Arm Holes – Sometimes those arms like to flap — these bigger holes let you roll the windows down with ease.
Fit for Longer Torsos – Roughly 2" longer than a standard fitting vest.
Coast Guard Approved – Safety doesn't take a vacation. These jackets push innovation boundaries but still have enough flotation to meet the safety requirements.
Cylindrical Construction – There was this homie named Capella from back in the day. He knew the earth was round. Ronix ripped off his theories and made their vests round. A cylindrical fit that curves to your body unlike any flat vest. The only vest of its kind.
H2O Yarn – A wide selection of our fabrics are knitted with yarn made from recycled plastic bottles.
H2O Glue – Most of our neoprene is laminated together with a water based glue.
2 to 1 Foam Thickness – Ronix always pushes the boundaries. Nobody is treating life vests with the passion for progression the way Ronix is. The standard in CGA vests, the Capella 3.0, has 2 to 1 foam for the first of its kind with tapered buoyancy. The foam starts in the chest at 2" thick, then fades to 1" thick around the stomach region. The result: buoyancy where you have to have it, and mobility where you want it.
Foam Tie Straps – Ronix tucks their foam in a harness so there is no shift between the neoprene shell and the inner foam.
Water Resistant Liner – You know that annoying face you make when you have to put on your buddy's wet life jacket? Not no more. Ronix created a liner that greatly reduces water seeping into a jacket, and most importantly the weird face.
