Rediscover safety on horseback with the Airflex Hit Air airbag vest, designed for all riders seeking invisible and efficient protection. Behind its discreet and lightweight profile, this vest features the best of Hit Air technology to safeguard your back, neck, chest, and abdomen, all while adapting to your movements thanks to an exclusive stretch and micro-perforated fabric design. At the forefront of regulatory standards, it is certified to the strictest French regulation (NF S72-800 2022), giving you complete peace of mind on every course, in every discipline, and on every ride. The integrated technology of this model also makes it an essential reference among high-end equestrian airbag vests.
Comprehensive protection, maximum lightness
The Airflex airbag vest offers a genuine envelope of protection covering all the rider's strategic areas. It stands out for enhanced safety along the entire spinal column, from the top of the neck all the way down to the lower pelvis, specifically including the often-exposed coccyx in case of a fall. Its integrated cervical collar deploys instantly to keep the head and neck aligned, effectively reducing the risk of major trauma.
- Back and Pelvis Protection: A large air cushion hugs and shields the spine, neck, and pelvis, providing you with full coverage—well beyond classic models limited to the torso.
- Chest and Abdominal Protection: Front airbags absorb direct and side impacts, protecting your vital organs during frontal or lateral collisions.
- Superior Absorption: The airbag is complemented by high-density foam inserts, specially placed at the front and rear to enhance shock absorption at that crucial moment.
Airflex fabric: next-generation ergonomics and ventilation
Unique on the market, the Airflex combines the efficiency of an innovative airbag vest with the sensation of a true second skin. Its innovative stretch material perfectly fits the body’s shape to ensure optimal support without any "armor" effect. The micro-perforations in the fabric allow for constant airflow: air circulates freely, even in hot weather or after several hours of riding. With every movement, the vest naturally follows your gestures, so that safety finally goes hand in hand with freedom.
- Stretchable and Adjustable: The vest instantly adapts to your position, from suspended jumping to a leisurely stroll.
- High-performance Ventilation: Micro-perforations prevent heat build-up, even over thick outer layers.
- Weightless Sensation: Weighs just over 1 kg depending on size—so light you'll forget you're wearing it and can fully enjoy your ride.
Instant deployment technology and french certification
Hit Air pushes the limits of equestrian protection with a deployment system designed to activate in just 0.25 seconds. The performance of the activation unit and the smooth flow of gas ensure superior responsiveness, well before ground impact. The result: energy absorption during a fall is 8 to 10 times greater than required standards, protecting you even in the most unexpected situations.
The Airflex vest meets the latest European test protocols: compliant with the CE standard and most importantly, certified to the demanding NF S72-800 2022 benchmark. This double certification guarantees you real and objectively verified efficiency for every training session or competition.
Everyday comfort and freedom of movement
Because protection is only effective if worn every day, the Airflex offers numerous practical benefits: tailored fit, wide openings under the arms, internal straps for a custom fit, and always worn as an over-garment. Even with a winter coat or a softshell jacket, it discreetly fits as the outermost layer. Its streamlined design is forgotten on your back and never impedes your mobility or performance in the saddle.
- Quick Closure: An effective system for peace of mind when getting ready to ride.
- Precise Adjustment: Waist fit adjustment thanks to ergonomic internal straps.
- Clothing Compatibility: Always worn as an outer layer, over all your clothing, with no impact on your appearance or comfort.
