Leatt AirFlex Body Protector For Female Riders
Modular protection system that comes in 2 pieces, it will not only give you the most efficient shielding but also great ventilation and comfort. Includes a zip-up compression sock (base layer) with soft, built-in shoulder and elbow impact guards plus a CE-Certified Leatt chest and back impact protector which is worn over the top and includes additional coverage and straps to suit the female form.
Meets CE-Certified Level 1 Safety Standards
Combining the use of Airflex soft impact gel for its extended back protector, with I-Mesh in the chest, this female-specific Body Protector offers great protection, comfort, and ventilation giving you the confidence to take on new challenges. It is designed to work with, or without, a Leatt Neck Brace, and meets Level-1 requirements for CE-certified impact protection of the chest and the back. It is intended to reduce the severity, or incidence, of soft tissue injuries such as bruising, contusions, cuts, and abrasions during off-road motorcycling and biking activities. It may even help to avoid more serious injuries such as minor fractures.
Can Be Worn Over Or Under Rider Jerseys
Boasting a low-profile, 3D-styled design which delivers a very comfortable fit, it also includes a BraceOn neck brace fitting system which allows the Protector to be worn over, or under, a jersey (neck brace not included). Moisture Cool, and AirMesh wicking fabrics work to deliver superior ventilation while built-in Anti-Odour technology helps to keep the compression sock smelling fresh.
Make Sure You Wear It Correctly For Best Performance
To get the most from your body protector the chest protector it should be positioned centrally along the vertical line of the sternum (breastbone) for maximum protection. To ensure maximum defence of the back area, it needs to be located centrally along the line of the spine, with the widest part of the back protector extending over the scapulae (shoulder blades) and with the lower edge of the back protector ending as close to the base of the spine as is comfortable. Elbow and Forearm protectors should be positioned centrally on the elbow and along the line of the ulna (forearm) bone to the little finger. Care should be taken to ensure that shoulder protectors are placed in position from halfway between the shoulder point and neck, down onto the upper arm; symmetrically, or biased to the front to give more frontal protection.
Pro Tips For Getting Your Protector Gear On
Here are a few pro-tips to help you master getting into your gear:
Compression Base Layer: Unzip the garment, fit onto the body, and zip up. Make sure the elbow and shoulder guards are positioned correctly as described above.
Chest Protector: Unfasten the waist straps and place the Protector over your head, ensuring that it is in the correct orientation with the shorter chest plate to the front. Loop the straps into the locks moulded into each side of the protector and adjust the straps to a snug fit. When correctly adjusted and worn with the user’s safety helmet and a Leatt Neck Brace, the Chest Protector should allow the full range of normal head and neck movements (i.e. looking up, looking down, and looking side-to-side, such as when performing an over-the-shoulder check). The Chest Protector, Leatt Neck Brace, and the helmet should only come into contact with each other as the full range of normal movement is reached. When dressed in your protective gear, please check that you are able to perform these functions before beginning any ride.
