As a newb, I'll take your advice. So what kinds of inflatables do folks use? I've seen the Sospenders type of vest, which looks like it might not be too restrictive. Are there others out there that are similar or better? What do you experienced guys use? Do the automatic inflatables run the risk of inflating if you get in up to your pits or washed over?

I'm lucky if I can find the water...
