SUPPORTING AND PROTECTING ARTICLE FOR THE HUMAN TORSO

摘要

A piece of apparel or wearable equipment is provided for wave surfers. The purpose of the apparel is to prevent undue pressure on a surfer's chest during the ‘paddling’ operation, where the surfer lies belly down upon the surfboard and paddles out to sea. The apparel consists of a wetsuit-like supporting article encircling the torso, having cushioning members embedded therein that absorb the pressure of the surfers body upon the board.
