Re: Back armor and Race Jacket.



Eric,

I have looked at the Vanson back protector and I'm not overly impressed.  I
would look at those that are CE tested and approved.  These tests are to
back protectors what the Snell tests are to helmets.  There are many good
units on the market so make sure you get something that will truly provide
you sound protection.  Beware of those that claim CE "Design".  There is
technically no such thing and these generally have not been tested.

Happy Hunting

Joe
