Re: Back protector
Forcefield. They're the only manufacturer that make a model that exceeds CE lv2 protection! Quite slim as well (definitely slimmer than my previous Alpinestar model), I'd at least have a look at it if I were you. I've always been more afraid of braking my back than my head!

Re: Back protector
Does anyone have a Dainese Wave protector? They fit in a pocket in the back of dainese jackets. They dont seem as large as others, was wondering if their comfy or have sufficient protection.

Re: Back protector
Yeah I've got one sitting in the back of my RST commuting winter jacket. I never realise it's there until I go on a winter weekend blat and it feels funny when I put it over my large fitted back protectorCojack wrote:Does anyone have a Dainese Wave protector?

I suppose that says it's comfy. Probably depends if it suits your shape & the jackets shape. If it's for weekend twisties riding or track days I'd say get a full fitted back protector because it has the kidney belt, is strapped to you for extra protection and wont move around etc. But if it's for when you're not going to wear a back protector anyways then well worth it in case things go pear shaped.
