This isn’t the first piece of gear most parents buy—but it starts to make sense as kids ski faster and take on more terrain.If your kid is skiing fast, riding park laps, or spending more time on crowded slopes, the risk shifts from simple falls to harder impacts. This adds a layer of protection for the back without getting in the way.
It uses a Level 1 certified back protector, which is designed to absorb and disperse impact energy. The vest itself is made from elastic mesh, so it fits snugly and stays in place under a jacket without feeling bulky. The padding is also removable, which makes it easier to wash after long days.
