The Pro Air air vest provides superior protection during equestrian events such as eventing, polo, schooling, and even hacking. It is lightweight but extremely durable, making it the popular choice among riders. With a comfortable fit, you won't remember wearing the Pro Air until you need it.
The newest features of our airbag trigger system include:
-Simplified canister connecting system. A bayonet style connector makes it
easier and faster to change your canister and reduces the risk of improper
installation.
-Simplified way to secure the trigger system end cap. This comes with an allen
key that is stored right on the trigger system to help tighten it.
-Vests now have foam pads behind the trigger for an even, comfortable fit.
-Adjustable straps on both sides of the buckles for a more suitable fit. (Pro
Air only)
-New pleated neck for better inflation action. (Pro Air & Hunter only)
-New neoprene collar for additional comfort. (Pro Air & Hunter only)
-20% faster inflation rate - Point Two Air Vests now inflate between 60 and 80
milliseconds - faster inflation means faster protection from impact.
-Lifetime warranty on the airbag component (subject to annual service)
-Each air vest comes with a saddle attachment & bungee lanyard and 1 x Co2
canister.
-Meets all high-level safety standards. (EN 13158: 2009 and SATRA M38
When inflated, Point Two Air Vests have been designed to absorb shock,
distribute pressure, and support the spinal column in the event of a fall. The
air jacket offers further support to the collar of the neck, the ribs, the
coccyx, the vital organs and even helps to guard against crushing injuries in
the event of a rotational fall.
Our air vests are fitted with one singular air bag which is why our air jackets
inflate faster than others on the market. There are no narrow passages to choke
the Co2 dispersion, or chambers that can fold over on each other when a bend in
the body occurs.
Impact testing conducted by TRL (Transport Research Laboratory) try to recreate
a test where there would be potentially fatal impact to the chest. The Point Two
air jacket reduced levels of chest compression seen in severe chest impact by
more than 55% of those seen in an unprotected fall. In an equivalent impact, a
Level 3 body protector shows only a 9% improvement on chest compression measures
compared to no protective clothing.
Did you know that after road accidents, paramedics attend more equestrian
related accidents than any other type? The most common site of injuries recorded
was the chest at 37% and approximately 70% of accidents occur whilst out hacking
or schooling than in competition.
When used in conjunction with a BETA level 3 body protector the Pro Air improves
spinal protection by up to 69% additionally the Pro Air provides approximately
45% more lower spine protection than a BETA level 3 body protector when worn
alone.
With or without a BETA level 3 body protector underneath there is a reduced
risk of rib fractures and underlying organ damage by as much as 20%.
