i really like my oniell assault. It is very comfortable and doesnt restrict any movement. I think they are about $100.

sk8thewake69,
As mentioned above, check out the JetPilot Cell Block Flex-Cell S/E Vest at Boardstop. I think that is exactly what you are looking for.

ya my friend also has an oneil assault and i think it is pretty comfortable and gives you lots of free moving space for a FDA approved vest. but i also want to try the jet pilot one too.

I have a Nevin USCG vest that has lumbar support. It's great for us old guys... The vest is very thin considering it's USCG.
