• Breakthrough innovation; 4x more protective than a normal standalone airbag.

• Turtle technology refers to the placement of back protectors on the outside of the airbag on front and rear panels – creating a double “turtle-like” protective shell.

• When a force is applied to the air vest the back protector disperses the energy across the airbag; significantly reducing the transmitted force to the user.

• The turtle effect is capable of delivering 50 times less transmitted force therefore significantly reducing the chance of injury.
