Hit Air Pro Plus Air Vest

The Hit Air Pro Plus Air Vest has larger airbags than the Hit Air Original to give the same quality of protection for riders of all sizes.

The Hit Air Equestrian Pro Plus Vest can be worn alone or over your protective vest. The vest inflates instantly in the event of a fall to give you an extra layer of protection from injury.

The Hit-Air Vest will instantly inflate in the event of a fall protecting the neck, torso, hips and spine using an innovative design with a high speed airbag deployment system that uses a CO2 cartridge to automatically inflate the vest in .25 seconds decreasing your chance of serious injury.

A bungee lanyard (included) is attached to both the saddle and the vest. Should the rider and the horse be separated, the lanyard pulls a “key” out of the CO2 cartridge to inflate the air cushion. The inflated vest absorbs the impact helping to prevent injury. You will hardly notice this super lightweight and comfortable vest even when worn over a riding vest (which is recommended).

Features of the Pro Plus Vest include:

• Air bag deploys within .25 seconds
• Airbag is placed at back of key box to strengthen buffering shock absorption
• A Visco Elastan panel is placed behind the CO2 cartridge and on each front rib panel providing extra protection
• CO2 canister and lanyard included (note saddle strap, sold separately is required for English saddles)
• Please refer to size chart for sizing
• Colors: Black is a stock color. Navy, Red and Grey are custom colors and take up to 8 weeks to get.
