Product description
The lightweight and flexible POC VPD Air Back spine protector is designed for trail riding where you need protection without restricting movement. The minimalist construction without a vest or jacket keeps weight and volume to a minimum, while 3D-shaped panels naturally conform to the body and remain stable even during active riding. VPD material is soft and pliable, adapting to every movement, but effectively stiffens and absorbs energy upon impact. Large ventilation openings also help to dissipate heat and maintain comfort during long rides and transfers.
Modular Protection
By changing the straps, the back protector can be used together with a chest protector (sold separately), so you get ideal protection for more demanding rides.
(Adjustment straps sold separately.)
