How To Use....Evaporative Cooling Vest...Riding In The Heat On My Can-Am SPYDER
TommyG and I have discovered just how well evaporative cooling vests work when riding in the heat. Here is a demonstration of how we use them, along with our neck gaters to help keep us cool in the dry heat...remember folks, it's not the heat, it's the humidity! 🥵🔥😁Thanks to Spyder Wayne for being our camera guy and vest modeler!
*This is our independent evaluation of the cooling vests we purchased a year ago...links are below if you are interested in purchasing ones like we have. I am not an Amazon affiliate, so I don't receive anything if you purchase these vests. We like them, but you be the judge and decide for yourself. *

If you stay at a motel with a frig. you can wet these and then freeze them. That really works well and keeps you cool.

We wear cooling vests similar to those at work. When you're around 1000° Steel all day, you need something to cool you off. The only thing about where I live is it's always Humid, but I'd still try it. A little help is better than none at all, especially in regards to excessive heat. Great Video as always, Guys!

I can see if you soak it in the restroom that would work. Especially in the toilet. Also I noticed TommyG put his vest in the container first so his vest would be soaked best. In the south with humidity. That would never evaporate. Making it hot as hades. But not at first. 😊😊😊😊

WOW.! I didn't expect a vid from U2. U must B in a hotel this evening to do the editing. Its been up 4 less then 1 day & already has 515 views & 66 Comment.! GOOD NEWs it never gets above 30C or 86F here in Canada. Most people think Canada is cold, but in the summer it's just right.! BTW: I do something similar but it takes a bit more work & doesn't last as long. I heat some water to about 22 above on the stove & stuff a T-Shirt into the pot to get it completely wet. Then carefully put that on overtop of a dry T-Shirt, that I am wearing. I drip for quite a while riding, but the concept is to try & avoid the shocking feeling of adding a VERY COLD T-Shirt to my Hot Body.!
