SPARK Hippodrome Airvest

The new & improved Spark Hippodrome Airbag Body Protector is now even more efficient than its predecessor thanks to a new triggering system that inflates in less than 200 milliseconds. The stylish vest is made of 600 Deniers polyester making it strong and wear resistant, with an easy to adjust and affix saddle attachment which now features a third clip at the front for more support. The SPARK Hippodrome Airbag gives the rider optimum protection in case of a fall. The vest is affixed to the saddle with a lanyard and inflates instantly when the horse and rider are separated. The Airbag vest is equipped with an easy to replace gas cartridge, which when triggered, releases air released into the inner bag to protect the entire upper body, from the neck to coccyx. Once inflated, the vest absorbs shocks, the rider is cushioned when hitting the ground, and their head is held in place. Lightweight and breathable, the vest can be worn over other clothing in temperatures ranging from 0 °C to 45 °C. The vest is perfectly cut out around the arms for total freedom of movement, features mesh bands for increased breathability and has reflective piping for more visibility.
