The V eight served me well on the hottest days of summer 2012. The jacket feels cool and out of the way which makes me more inclined to wear it. Padding over the shoulders keeps the webbing off the skin and adds to comfort. I found it to be a very comfortable vest for any paddling endeavor, but especially for SUP!
