SOORUZ - FIFTY CE Vest - 50 Newton Standard
A vest that supports you when things get rough and lets you ride free when it glides. Simple, safe, effective.
The vest that stays in place when the water gets choppy
The SOÖRUZ FIFTY CE gives you peace of mind with a 50N certified ISO 12402-5 without weighing down your session. You keep your shoulders free to pull your tow, accelerate towards the kicker, and think about your rotation, not your gear.
The front zip makes it easy to put on when your hands are still wet from the previous session. You adjust the abdominal strap, and it doesn't move: even on a flat landing, it stays put. The only thing that shakes is the dock when you hit the start.
What makes the difference
Certified 50N, ride without worries
Buoyancy certified at 50 Newton (ISO 12402-5). You recover quickly after a fall, breathe, and go again. It’s a buoyancy aid designed for riding, not an armor.
19 mm foam, 3/4 distribution
19 mm of foam in a 3/4 distribution: support where you need it, without restricting you. You feel the board, keeping flex to pump and pop on the kicker.
Front-zip + abdominal strap
Front-zip entry and Abdominal tightening strap: you close, you tighten, done. The vest stays snug against your body, even at the end of a run when your arms are heating up.
Wing-friendly when you change terrain
Back attachment loop (Back loop) for wing leash and compatibility with the Soöruz Wing Belt: the straps lock and hold the hook. Downwind, wake, paddle… you switch programs without changing vests.
Ultra-flexible neoprene comfort
Ultra-flexible neoprene as advertised by the brand: it hugs your body without suffocating you, you move naturally on the park and paddle without fighting against the gear.

For which rider?
For those who want a true 50N that doesn't hinder movement. You ride the cable, line up a kicker, pull a press on the slider: the vest stays in place and lets you focus on timing. And if tomorrow you go downwind or paddle, you keep the same setup, just the horizon changes.
Frequently asked questions
Is the FIFTY CE compliant for a 50N buoyancy aid?
Yes. It is certified 50 Newton (50N) according to ISO 12402-5. It’s a buoyancy aid designed for water sports, not a 100N life jacket. Ideal for wake, downwind, and paddle, as indicated by the brand.
What closure and retention system?
Front-zip entry for easy on and off, plus an abdominal tightening strap to lock the fit. Once closed and tightened, the vest stays in place during the session.
Compatibility with a harness or wing belt?
Yes. It is designed to integrate the Soöruz Wing Belt and has a back loop for attaching a wing leash. The vest straps help lock and hold the hook in place during the ride.
What sizes and fit?
Available sizes: XS-S, M, L, XL-XXL. The ultra-flexible neoprene construction offers a fitted cut that moves with you. Choose your usual buoyancy vest size. If you're between sizes, opt for the fit closest to your body.
For what uses is this vest recommended?
The recommended disciplines are Downwind, Wake, and Paddle. Its 50N buoyancy and ultra-flexible neoprene comfort make it a versatile companion for alternating between park, cruising, and windy sessions, while remaining a buoyancy aid compliant with ISO 12402-5.
Care after the session?
Rinse with fresh water after each outing and let dry in the shade, zip open. Avoid direct heat sources to preserve the neoprene and foam (19 mm). Flat or wide hanger storage helps maintain shape and fit.
