A selectively inflatable watersports inflation device is disclosed. The device is a vest or another wearable device having an inner layer (103), an outer layer, and a bladder (104) between the inner and outer layers. The device also includes one or more canisters (114) coupled to the bladder and configured to selectively deliver pressurized gas into the bladder to provide flotation when actuated. The device also includes a pressure release valve that can also be manually actuated to release pressure from the bladder. The device can include multiple discrete canisters that can each be deployed independently of one another to provide an inflatable device that can be triggered multiple times even in hazardous conditions such as high surf.
