How many of you guys with the lifelines actually wear them? And do you hook up the leg straps?
I am planning to buy a lifeline at some point this summer, just having a hard time coughing up the money for one. I know they offer better protection, but only if you wear it. The race jackets I've seen just don't look comfortable, and if it ain't comfortable I know I'll have a hard time making myself wear it.
And I just got one of the mercury hi-perf jackets for my birthday last week. I know it isn't a lifeline, but definitely better than the ski jacket I've been wearing. It's got the leg straps on it, but man those things are uncomfortable. Feels like if you got tossed and the jacket was actually yanked up, those straps could squish a nad. The jacket itself is comfy though.
