back/spine protectors - which one? - Snowboarding Forum

beehive · 01-29-2013, 05:04 AM

Guys,

I'm in the market for a good back/spine protector. Which is the one to go, which brand, what's the best these days?

Was thinking about POC spine Ergo models..

what's the deal here, should I get a wider one, taller, shorter ..

Thanks!

I have not used a back protector but have found POC to be the most comfortable and best fitting brand by far for padded shorts and other protective equipment.

Yup, it really looks good and comfy, but You don't see many of these around, so I was just curious. Either Poc, or Dainese, dunno
