Discover the perfect balance between lightness, safety, and freedom of movement with the Hit Air Light 2 Airbag Vest Pack + Extension Set. Designed to support riders in all their activities, the Light 2 airbag vest offers ultra-high-performance protection without compromising on discretion or comfort, thanks to its slimmed-down size and fitted cut, emblematic of the Hit Air range. This model is one of the leading references in horse riding airbag vests: it’s intended for everyone seeking an expert solution for riding, combining ergonomic design, effectiveness, and advanced safety technologies.
The ideal combination of lightness and complete protection
Where many pieces of equipment require a choice between comfort and safety, the Light 2 excels in both areas. Sleeker and less bulky than the Complet series, it has been developed to ensure maximum protection for the spine, from the neck to the coccyx, while maintaining a feeling of lightness that impresses both in everyday riding and in competition.
- Full spinal protection: From the neck to the lower back, every segment of your spine is protected by an enveloping air cushion, instantly activated in case of a fall.
- Protective cervical collar: A signature of Hit Air safety, it offers reinforced support for the head and neck, greatly reducing the risk of cervical spine injuries and whiplash.
- Chest and abdominal reinforcements: Vital areas at the front of the torso benefit from optimized padding and high-density foam inserts to absorb the force of frontal and lateral impacts.
Innovation and efficiency, meeting the latest standards
At the forefront of innovation, the Light 2 airbag vest incorporates the most advanced technologies to ensure you maximum efficiency. Its simple and safe mechanical triggering system allows the airbag to deploy in just 0.25 seconds: well before any contact with the ground, it creates a protective cocoon around you with exceptional density.
Made from 500D nylon and polyester mesh, it combines durability and breathability, with shock absorption performance that exceeds regulatory requirements. Certified according to the NF S72-800-2021 standard, this model meets all international safety criteria, with rigorous tests on inflation speed, pressure distribution, and damping capacity.
Tailor-made comfort and total freedom: a vest you forget while riding
Because protection is only effective if it fits your routine, the Light 2 is molded to suit all body shapes. Its fitted cut and large armhole openings offer unmatched freedom of movement, praised by show jumping, dressage, and outdoor riders alike, who accept no compromise on comfort.
The included extension set allows you to adjust your vest during cold seasons or when layering clothing, without sacrificing protective performance. The inner straps, together with the outer extensions, ensure a perfect fit, close to the body and key risk areas at all times.
Designed for all riders, all disciplines, and all levels
The Light 2 + Extension Set pack is the ideal companion, whether you are a beginner, experienced, or expert rider, whatever your preferred discipline: show jumping, eventing, dressage, or trail riding. Its lightness and fast activation make it a daily ally that meets the needs of both teenagers and adults, men and women, whenever safety becomes essential.
The specific requirement of a minimum rider weight of 25 kg guarantees reliable activation for all rider profiles. By prioritizing everyone’s safety, Hit Air also emphasizes easy use: each pack comes ready to use with its cartridge, rearming device, clear instructions, a cover, and an all-in-one strap.
Optimized cervical protection and smart versatility
This vest particularly stands out for its enhanced cervical protection via its protective collar, designed to hold the head firmly in the event of a shock, minimizing extraneous movement and providing lasting protection to the spine. For those who wish to further personalize their vest, it is possible to add a compatible removable back protector to equip the back with an additional safety device, depending on your needs or the requirements of certain competitions.
A vest designed to enjoy horse riding with total peace of mind
Although it represents the latest evolution in the Light range, this pack was designed to last: the quality of the textiles used (500 denier nylon, ventilated mesh), easy maintenance (wiping clean, quick drying), a two-year guarantee and intuitive rearming process make the Light 2 a sound investment for many years of riding. And if there is any doubt about the size, it is recommended to opt for the larger size in case of hesitation.
Choose peace of mind and performance. With the Hit-Air Light 2 Pack + Extension Set, transform your approach to safety: forget about the vest, let it work if needed, and focus on what matters most—the joy of riding, the precision of your technique, and connecting with your horse at every moment. To equip yourself even better and complete your safety, many equestrian rider equipment options are available at Vestride.
