Redefine your riding safety with the Complet 3 Hit-Air airbag vest, the essential ally for all riders looking for the most advanced protection on the market. Designed and engineered by the Japanese trailblazer Hit-Air, this airbag vest raises the bar with cutting-edge technology, meticulous ergonomics, and strict compliance with the latest NF S72-800 2022 standard. With every session, competition, or ride, enjoy unmatched peace of mind knowing your spine, neck, and entire torso are protected 360° thanks to one of the best equestrian airbag vests designed for adults and perfectly adapted to the demands of the field.
Total protection for demanding riders
Thanks to its full-coverage design, the Complet 3 protects the entire spine: from the top of the neck down to the sacrum and coccyx. Its airbag system also envelops the entire chest and abdomen, extending to the front, back, and sides of the torso to provide impressive coverage of vital areas.
- Spine and neck: A large air cushion absorbs impacts along the whole back, while a raised collar firmly stabilises the neck to reduce the risk of whiplash in the event of a fall.
- Rib cage and abdomen: The airbag protection covers the ribs and abdomen, absorbs the energy from frontal and lateral impacts, and safeguards vital organs.
- Maximised absorption: The front and rear cushions are reinforced with specific high-density foams. This active reinforcement maximizes the dissipation of impact, far exceeding standard requirements.
Ultra-fast deployment technology and french certification
At the core of this vest is a major technical breakthrough: a next-generation activation system, specifically designed to rapidly diffuse CO2 gas into the airbag. The result: the optimal pressure level is reached in just 0.25 seconds, well before the rider hits the ground. This exceptional responsiveness allows the vest to absorb up to 10 times more energy than required by the NF S72-800 2022 standard.
This certification is not a mere formality: it attests to rigorous testing, validating deployment speed, coverage area, shock absorption capacity, and efficiency in all common riding situations. You benefit from a proven, recognised safety device that’s at the cutting edge of the latest regulatory requirements.
Ergonomic fit for everyday comfort
Safety and freedom can finally go hand in hand. The ergonomic cut of the Complet 3 vest has been redesigned to promote mobility for all equestrian activities. The large arm openings allow for wide movements, while ensuring enveloping protection.
Hidden internal adjustment straps at the waist allow you to perfectly adapt the vest to your body shape. They guarantee optimal placement, whatever your gear or outfit of the day. Designed as an outer layer, the vest is always worn over your clothes, even your winter coat. If necessary, you can add extension straps for a perfect fit all year round.
Its construction in strong 500D Nylon and polyester mesh offers resistance to snags, all while keeping the weight down (approx. 1.1 kg depending on size), so it never hinders your movements during competitions or long training sessions.
A ready-to-use vest, designed for practicality
The Complet 3 airbag vest arrives ready to use and fully operational as soon as you receive it. The pack includes:
- An integrated CO2 cartridge, selected according to size (50cc for XS-S and 60cc for M-L) for always optimal inflation.
- An all-in-one attachment strap compatible with all saddles, making installation easy whatever your horse or discipline.
- A resetting kit for simple reactivation after deployment.
- A detailed user manual to walk you through the setup, illustrated and clear.
- A robust protective cover for safe transport or stable storage.
The activation force is suited for all adult sizes, ensuring triggering only when needed (minimum pull: 25 kg for XS to L). The vest is suitable for riders from 1.30 m and 25 kg upwards. A children’s version is available with a reduced activation force, specially designed for young riders.
Who is it for? all disciplines, all demands
Whether you practise show jumping, dressage, eventing, endurance, or hacking, the Complet 3 by Hit-Air adapts to every discipline. It’s aimed at both experienced riders seeking the ultimate in technology and enthusiasts looking for an NF-certified vest with unrivalled protection.
The absence of a Velcro back protector (unlike the Complet II model) is not restricting: you can optionally install a removable back protector for extra back support, according to your preferences or competition rules.
Tested, approved, and used in all conditions, this vest is today considered a new safety standard for all adult equestrian practitioners.
