Impact Safe-T Armor's Competition Chest Protector (C-008AW) has a new feature called the Ab~Wing, which gives impact-protection coverage for the often overlooked area just below the ribcage. The Ab~Wing acts as hinge below the chest protector, so when a rider gets into the racing crouch, the Ab~Wing mimics the rider's movement and body position, so it won't interfere with comfort or movement. According to the maker, here's how it works: A patented Impact Deceleration Control technology allows impact energy to be transmitted through an Expanding Pouch outer cover and directly onto penetration-resistant Impact Diffusers. These flexible shields evenly distribute the impact force over the surface area of the Nitrile Foam Impact Core. This Impact Core continues the process of decelerating harmful impact forces by utilizing its intrinsic ability to expand and compress laterally. The Expanding Pouch and its Impact Decleration Control components return to their original state upon cessation of outside impact forces and can be reused. It doesn't cost extra to get the protector custom fitted (so ladies and kids can wear something that actually fits them) and the C-008AW works in conjunction with Impact Safe-T Armor's back protector. If you already have a Competition Series Chest Protector, you can get it upgraded for a nominal cost. Impact Safe-T Armor gear is developed with feedback from pro racers – just call the friendly staff at 916/725-2936 to hear some great stories. Impact Safe-T cares a great deal about the motorcycle community, and works with Ethan Gillim's "Chasin A Dream" program and the USGPRU to make sure our youth road racers have the protective gear they need.
